Welcome back. I hope you have all had a fabulous Christmas and had a good start to the new year. It has certainly been a cold start for us this term although today has been milder even though it has only been 6ºc.  Due to the weather the children have been spending more time indoors and as the really cold spell is returning they may have to do the same next week. However, the children do spend some time outdoors so can you please make sure that you do send them into school next week with the appropriate outdoor garments to withstand the cold conditions.  

Even though it is the new year I am going to have to have a little moan. My site manager has informed me that some people are parking up in front of the school even though we have requested that people do not do this and we have had a couple of complaints from our neighbours that some people have been blocking their drives which means that they cannot access their homes. I have asked on numerous occasions that parents do not do either of these things. Blocking someone’s drive is against the law and if our neighbours call the police you will have to deal with them. We also ask that you do not park in front of the school so that we can keep the area in front of the school a pedestrian area which makes it safer for our children to walk to and from school. We do not want an accident to occur before parents take our request seriously.

Next week in school all of our extra-curricular clubs start again which makes school life a lot more exciting for most of the children. If you have not done so already, please make sure that you sign them up for their selected clubs so that they can attend.

I hope you all have a great weekend and I look forward to seeing you all again next week
