27th June 2025
Dear Parents / Carers,
It has been very hot this week and the children have coped really well. Can I please ask you again to ensure your child is wearing a blue sun hat to school every day in this hot/sunny weather. If they do not have a sun hat they will be asked to either stay inside or have to remain in the shade. We want to them to be safe in the sun and protect them from the sun’s harmful rays.
I would also like to take this opportunity to apologise to Year 1 parents for the mix up of dates for St Bernadette and St Therese Class Assemblies and to Year 2 parents for the mix up with the Year 2 -3 transition meeting. I can only apologise – I had a couple of dates written in the diary for everything- sorry. It has taught me a valuable lesson about either writing confirmed by a date or deleting as I go along. I am sorry for the inconvenience this has caused to you all. I will try harder next year!!

St Bernadette Assembly We had the pleasure of watching St Bernadette Class assembly on Wednesday. They taught us the importance of having big dreams and believing in ourselves. We can all achieve great things in this world when we believe in ourselves and we work hard. We must trust in God to guide us in the right direction and that he will always be there for us and is ready to listen. |

Year 2 Visit to Brighton Sea Life Centre On the 2nd July Year 2 will be taking the coach to Brighton and visiting the Sea life centre. Please ensure you have filled in the permission slips and that on the day your child is dressed appropriately (wearing the correct school uniform). It is important that they are wearing the correct uniform so that staff and helpers can spot them easily. I am sure they will have a wonderful time. |
