Shawclough Community Primary School

Unit Two are having a Prince and Princesses Day on Friday 30 March 2012. The children are invited to dress up as a Prince or Princess for the day and celebrate what they have learnt during our terms’ work on Knights and Castles.

Whitworth Road/Crowshaw Drive - there will be no School Crossing Patrol at the above site from Monday 26 March 2012 until further notice. Norma your patrol is retiring, she will be sadly missed by us, and can you please join me in wishing Norma all the best and good luck for the future. Unfortunately we are unable to provide cover.

If you know of anyone who would be interested in school crossing patrol work please contact the Road Safety Unit, telephone 0845 121 2972, for details of pay and conditions, because we have various locations available within the borough. Or alternatively you can email nicola.mcilvenny@impactpartnership.com and an application form will be emailed back to you.

Thank you very much to all parents who encouraged and supported children to cycle and scooter to school during last week. The event was a great success. Remember anyone who cycles or scooters to school on Tuesday can go into Early Start Club and claim a free breakfast.

Our Education Welfare Officer will be visiting Unit One to talk about the importance of getting to school everyday and on time. You will receive a separate letter explaining the competition she is going to run for Unit One children.

On Friday 16 March the choir will be singing in assembly at 10.00 a.m. Parents and carers are most welcome to join us.
