Snack Shop
School Council are going to be running a Snack Shop starting Monday 26th September during playtime.  We will be selling bread sticks, rice cakes, cheese crackers and digestive biscuits.  The children will be allowed to spend up to 20p per day which is a £1 a week.  If your child would like to buy a snack, they will need to be responsible for their own money and keep it safe in an envelope or wallet.

Reminders

If you have not done so already, please also let us know if your child (Adders) is able to attend Young Voices in February.  Please see the leaflet attached to the email sent a couple of weeks ago for more information.  Don't forget that PGL payments are due by Friday!  Please either pay by cash, cheque or via the website.  If you have any issues with payment which we are not already aware of, please get in touch as soon as possible.

 

Swimming reminder

Swimming for Year 3&4 children will resume on Monday.

 

Reception children

It has been lovely to see the children having more confidence this week and some are now walking in with their friends or siblings, or with Miss Cooper when she meets them at the gate. Thank you to reception parents for encouraging this, Miss Cooper will continue to meet them at the gate next week and Ms Rivers will wait to greet them at the classroom.

 

Lunches

Please ensure that lunches are paid for at the end of each week.

Bentley School's Christian Ethos

"Know that I am with you always," Matthew 28:20 We encourage the spiritual, social, moral and cultural development of the school family by embedding Christian values into everyday life. Our vision is for all children to be confident individuals, successful learners and responsible citizens who are well equipped for future life, knowing that God is with them always.
