It is hard to believe that we are so near to the end of term, the weeks have certainly
flown by. Although we are unable to do many of the normal Christmas activities and
events this year we have planned a fun filled last week of term so the children will
not miss out in any way.
This week Year 1 enjoyed a visit from Estelle and the Toy museum at Carisbrooke
Castle. The children had a great time looking at and playing with toys from years
gone by, not an electronic device in sight!
Today Gruffalo class are on a trip to Sandown Zoo, they are making gifts for the
animals and then watching them open them. We look forward to hearing all about it
next week.
We have sold 55 wreath making kits which was great, please send in photos of the
completed wreaths that we can then share on Weduc. A big thank you to Mrs
Mumberson, Miss Connelly and Mrs Smith for putting the kits together.
We will be holding the Christmas Raffle on Tuesday 8th and Wednesday 9th
December. Please see details further on in the newsletter.
Today your child will have come home with their End of term report. If you would
like to speak to your child’s class teacher about the report please contact the school
office to arrange a telephone appointment.
We have noticed that some of the girls are wearing leggings as part of their school
uniform. If your daughter wishes to wear trousers they are the traditional school
grey trousers. Leggings are permitted as part of the PE kit.
Just to make you aware on Tuesday 8th December there is a memorial service
taking place at the church at 12pm. It is anticipated that it will be clear before pick
up time but please be mindful of other car park users on this day.
Enjoy your weekend and see you all on Monday.
Yours sincerely,
Mrs Maria Herbert
