Reports

Thank you to those of you who have confirmed receipt of reports via the Forms and added your comments.  If you have yet to do so, please use the links on the letters (there was one per class) to both confirm receipt and to feedback or comment upon those reports.

Sports Tokens

Don't forget tomorrow is the last day that the Sports Equipment Tokens will be published in the local press.  Please ensure you send in any you've been collecting by the end of term so that we can count them up and get them registered to be in with a chance of winning some new sports equipment.

Mersea Island Trip

KS1 had an exciting trip on Tuesday to Mersea Island.  They had a lovely time visiting the museum, flying their kites and eating ice cream.  They were all a little tired at the end of the day.

Pleasurewood Hills Trip

Foxes celebrated their time together with a fantastic day out at Pleasurewood Hills on Wednesday.  They all enjoyed the rides and having a relaxed day with their classmates.

Elections

School Council elections were held this week, and our councillors for next year are Darcie, Willow, George B, Alfie, Ellie N, Pippa, Joseph B, Olivia, David & Delilah.  Well done to all of you.  The Head Pupil elections take place on Monday.

Community Fete

Why not pop along to the Community Fete being held tomorrow between 1 & 5pm at Copdock Village Hall.  There will be lots to see and do, and an opportunity to see if you've won any prizes!  If you have yet to return your raffle tickets, take them on the day but nice and early to make sure you are included.  If you have any unsold tickets, these would also be welcomed.

Bikeability

On Monday and Tuesday, our Year 5 pupils will be participating in bikeability.  Please ensure their clothing is suitable for cycling, including appropriate footwear.  Children will need to bring their bike with them on Monday morning, and must have a helmet.  Please ensure the children have plenty of water with them that they can take out on their bikes - either in holders or suitable bags.  Please consider the weather, they will be cycling whatever the weather, therefore suncream and waterproofs as required.

Kittens Class - Tuesday

On Tuesday Kittens class will have a special treat involving a paddling pool - please ensure Kittens bring swimwear and a towel with them.  They will need a complete sun block applied in the morning before coming to school please.

Last Day of Term

Our last day of term is next Wednesday as we are taking the Thursday in lieu of the Queen's Platinum Jubilee bank holiday held nationally in the Whitsun half term.  On the last day of term, children can come to school in non-uniform.  Pupils do not need to bring anything into school on Wednesday except a water bottle and lunch (if they are having packed lunch).  Please ensure all medicines are collected by the end of term and all items of lost property have been searched for - there are a lot of unnamed tops on the lunch trolley!

There will be a leavers assembly at 9am on Wednesday where we say farewell to our year 6 pupils.  All parents are welcome to attend.
