Phones in School
Although we would discourage children from bringing in expensive phones to school, if they do, they must be switched off and handed to the teacher. They will be locked away until the end of the school day. Any phones are brought in at your own risk and the school will not be held responsible for them. Any phones not handed in will be confiscated and parents asked to collect from school.
PE changes next week
OSPREY – PE on Thursday (as well as Monday) – going to Little Springers Gymnastics
Swimming
Swimming starts on 5th November for 5 weeks.
On Tuesdays – Penguin and Osprey
On Wednesdays – Nightingale and Hummingbird
Children should come to school swimming ready in costumes under PE kit. Goggles can be worn; however, it is the responsibility of the child to keep them safe. Further information will follow by email.
