A Message from Mrs Gale
What a very wet and wintery week we have had which unfortunately
meant that the planned Sports Day did not
go ahead this week. The day has been rescheduled to next Friday
(21st), fingers crossed for better weather.
Sadly, Miss Kitching will be leaving the school at the end of
this academic year to take up full-time employment within the NHS.
We will be very sad to say Goodbye and wish her lots of best wishes
in her new career. The
school has advertised for a replacement School Business Officer,
details can be found on the school website, Facebook and the
Lancashire website section for jobs. If you know of any suitable
candidates, please point
them in the right direction. The closing date for applicants is
28th June.
You may see the school minibus out and about over the next few
weeks transporting the Chernobyl Children to and from their planned
activities. The children arrive tomorrow and will be spending the
day in school on Friday
5th July.
Today was the last Mini Church of this academic year. The next
session will take place in September and the topic covered will be
Harvest. Mini Church has grown over the last 6 months and today
there were 14 children
taking part in the Teddy Bears Picnic and a Dough Disco session
with Mrs Brown. Incidentally, today is
International Dough Disco Day.
It is Miss Day’s last day in school next Friday. Over the past
couple of months, the children and staff have loved having Miss Day
in school. She has been committed to upholding the high standards
set in school and
been a very valuable member of the team. We will miss her but I
am sure like most of the student teachers who come she will be back
to visit and may pop up at a fayre or play along the way.
We wish her lots of luck in her future career as a teacher.
Monday is the Mini Marathon in school for all children. Each
family should have received a Sponsor form. Money raised will go
towards the school’s chosen charity, WaterAid and funding for the
school’s minibus.
Children should come into school dressed in PE clothes. Thank
you in advance for your support for this event.
Thank you for your continued support, have a lovely weekend,
Mrs Katrina C Gale
