Year 6 Wolsey Theatre visit in
Year 6 children will be joining Year 6 children at Copdock on Wednesday afternoon to watch 'The Lies you tell; delivered by The Wolsey Theatre. It has a focus on mental health, and will just be aimed at the Year 6 children from both schools. Children will be taken to Copdock by minibus after lunch.
This is a brand-new, joyful, music-filled play by award-winning writer Yolanda Mercy, commissioned by Suffolk County Council to support young people in understanding and prioritising their mental wellbeing after the last two years.
A reminder about Drop off and Pick up
Please note that parents are not allowed on school grounds or building during the school day (8.45am to 3.00pm), please always report to the school office.
At drop off children should queue up at the woodland gate where it will be opened at 8.40am, we note that some children do come in at the far gate if they are dropped off at that end but should not be on school grounds before 8.40am as the playground will not be supervised.
Any children arriving after 8.45am, when the woodland gate is shut must come in through the main school office, not brought in through the far gate please.
At the end of the day, please do not enter the school gate until after 3.00pm. If you are waiting at the gate before then, please do not distract any children learning outside. Thank you for your support.
