After the rain of last week it is certainly nice to be
writing this blog in better conditions –the summer certainly seems to be
hanging on for a little longer – long may it last. Everyone is now very settled
in school and it is difficult to believe that the children have only been back
for a few weeks and are in new year groups. It just goes to show what a good
job the teachers do in settling the children back into school life.
Next week there is quite a lot happening in school. On
Wednesday the photographer will be in school taking pictures of family groups
and all the children individually. As I mentioned in my newsletter this would
be a good time to make sure your children make an extra effort with their
appearance because it will be a whole year before the photographer returns
again. After school, on the same day, some of the older girls will be taking
part in a netball tournament at Mount Grace.
On Friday we are having our Harvest Festival in school and I
look forward to seeing many of you there. The timeslots for the various year
groups were included on the newsletter but I must emphasize that these are only
guidelines and if you have two children in the school you can pick the slot
that is most convenient to you and all your children can join you for that
time. The PTA normally helps us run this event but they are having difficulty
finding volunteers at the moment. If you could spare some time to support this
event please either contact the PTA or let the school office know of your
availability.
The school week then spills into the weekend because some of
the older children are taking part in a football tournament on Saturday morning
at Mount Grace. Even though it is a school event on a non-school day I am sure
they will all have a good time.
With all that going on I will certainly be kept on my toes
next week. I also have a couple of meetings to attend out of the school so I am
sure that the week will fly. Enjoy your weekend.
