After a very busy morning at our Harvest Festival it is
actually quite a treat to sit down and type up my blog. As usual our Harvest
Festival was well attended and the children performed their songs very well. I
really enjoyed listening to the new songs and I hope all our parents did as
well. I would like to thank Mrs Gwinnett, Mrs Robinson and Mr Spring for all
the work they did in preparing the children for this morning. I would also like
to thank the PTA for serving all the refreshments – without their support many
of the events we run in school would not be possible. Last, but certainly not
least, I would like to thank all our lovely parents for helping to make the
event such a success. Your generosity through your donations of cakes and in
the money you gave this morning is much appreciated. As you know the charity we
are supporting this year is the NSPCC and I will inform you of the total when I
know how much we have raised.
The ‘Book Fair’ arrived in school this week which is always
greeted by great excitement from the children. Although they have sent us
slightly fewer books this year there is still quite a good selection for the
children to choose from. You will be
able to purchase books from the fair after school until Tuesday. Remember that the
more money we raise the more books we can purchase for the school.
Next week the builders, although much delayed, will be
coming into school to start the work on our heating and water system. Although
to begin with it will not be too intrusive it will have an impact on our daily
timetable but it will only be temporary and the school will be much improved.
Once they arrive I will have a better idea of how the work is going to proceed
(they have changed their original plans) I will be able to give you more
information.
Next week is the annual ‘Primary Headteachers’ Conference’
and so I will not be around for the second half of the week. If there is an
issue you would like to discuss with me you can make an appointment to see me
the following week or you could speak to Mrs Zegallo in my absence. It also
means that there will not be a head teacher’s blog next week.
I hope you all have a pleasant weekend. Do not forget on
Monday morning that the school photographer is coming in to take individual photographs
of the children so you may want them to take extra care with their appearance.
