Paige Phillips-Brady 5F; Jack Taylor 5F; Liam Steele 5F; Maisie Byron 5F; Louis Gibson 4S; Nauman Ajaz 5F; Sulyaman Qadir 5F and Alex Harrison 2B. February’s Eco Competition is to design and make a recycled birdfeeder. There will be a prize for everyone who enters and 3 bigger prizes for the most creative designs.
Ideas of what you could use:
Drinks bottle; milk carton; twigs – you don’t need to add bird seed, we will add this.
Your birdfeeder needs to be able to stand all weathers! We will put them into our school grounds.
They need to be handed in by Thursday 23rd February.

Music Lessons:
Fees for this half term are now due. Lessons are £2.85 per week. Fees must be paid weekly in order for lessons to continue. Please also send any outstanding music fees into school as soon as possible. Thank you.

Street Dance:
KS1 Street Dance has now finished. On Tuesday night the parents enjoyed a dance presentation and the children received certificates and medals to celebrate their achievements.
Leaflets have gone out today to KS2 children to start after half term. Places are limited so it will be on a 1st come, 1st served basis.

Text Messaging Service:
We are continuing to use our text messaging service and in some cases, instead of sending letters out. Therefore it is extremely important that you ensure you keep school up-to-date with any change in mobile phone numbers.

Dinner Money:
Lunches are now £1.80 per day - £9.00 per week. Please send money on a Monday, in an envelope with your child’s name and class on.
There is a copy of the menus on our school portal. After half term we are on Week 3.

Sainsbury Vouchers:
We will be collecting these vouchers from 15th February.
