Whats Going On
Although we are already into our second week of this half term there are still plenty of things taking place in school over the coming weeks to inform you about.
Class Assemblies start this week and as usual they are on Wednesday mornings at 8.55am. Parents or carers are very welcome to attend:
Wed June 13th —Y1HC
Wed June 20th —Y3PH
Wed June 27th —Y2RO
Wed July 4th —Y4BM
Wed July 11th — YRClS
Wed July 18th —Y5KO
This half term is also very busy with a number of external artists supporting the children in preparation for work towards the Children’s festival.
We have two local artists in for 4 days undertaking music, puppet and art projects with our Key Stage 2 pupils (Y3—Y6). We also have our KS1 pupils working towards taking part in the Lord Mayors Parade on Saturday July 7th. The KS2 children will be then taking part in a variety of activities at key venues throughout Sheffield including the Crucible and the Winter Gardens.
Transition day will be held on Thursday 5th July when all children will spend a day with their new class teacher. You will find out who your child’s new class teacher is before this day.
Reports are due out on Friday July 6th. You will also be invited to a new style parents meeting on Thursday 12th July.

Class Moves
Over the coming weeks we will be asking all children in Y2 and Y4 to let us know about any friends they want to move class with as it is the time when we plan all classes for
September.
Please let me know by letter if you want to make representation for your child to be with specific friends or not! and the reasons why by
Friday 22nd June.
We will not be moving our current reception children into new classes for Y1 as the September class was split in January when the remainder of the year group joined them.
I will endeavour to accommodate all parental wishes but need to make it clear that we do need to balance the classes on gender, age and ability too.
Just to remind all parents that our final INSET day is scheduled for Monday 25th June. School will be closed for all children on this day and reopen on Tuesday 26th.
Bug Busting
We are also due to start a “Bug Busting” campaign. It runs from 15th June to 27th June. Please help us
“Beat those Bugs”
The Circus is coming to town

If you want to find out more, please ring the school on 2468020 or contact 07818 053660 for more details. Shows are at 4pm, 5.30pm and 7pm
SRE Week
Last week saw all children throughout school undertaking a wide range of activities based on the SRE curriculum. I have no doubt the children shared with you the work they had been undertaking during the week and it was great to see so many parents in school undertaking the workshops and activities put on for you. Thank you for your support.
Summer Fun
As we are now well into the summer term, it is also the time of year when children spend most time outside, both at school and at home, sometimes in extreme sunshine at the hottest time of the day.
Can I please remind you of our sun policy which includes children bringing sun hats to school to be worn during the heat of the day. Children are encouraged to wear loose clothing including blue check sundresses for girls and shorts for boys, although they need to make sure that any jumpers or cardigans they do bring have their name clearly labelled in them. We have a huge amount of lost property, much without names in!
Children also have access to free cold water during the day and this is important for re-hydration, especially in the hot weather
Please can I also remind parents that children should be encouraged to put sun cream on before they come to school. Unfortunately staff are unable to apply sun cream to the children during the school day.
Thank you.
