REMINDERS!!!!

Coats

As the weather changes, please can you send in a waterproof coat each day with your child.  We do try to get children outside at playtime and lunchtime even if it is drizzling so a waterproof coat is necessary (a fleece will not keep them dry). Please ensure all clothing is named so lost property can be reunited with their owner.

PTA Summer Fair

A reminder that the PTA summer fair is on Sunday (28th).  Please come along on the day and if you are able to help in any way, please let the PTA know. 

Lunch and Morning Club payments - Please ensure that all payments are paid weekly as taken. thank you for your support.
