Walk to School Week
Next week 3rd to 7th October is “Walk to School Week”. I hope as many of you as possible will walk to school and avoid getting stuck in traffic jams.
Cryptosporidiosis
This infection has a combination of symptoms such as diarrhoea, stomach
ache, or vomiting and can be very common in children. It is very contagious, so if your child has any of the symptoms they must be kept off school until they are completely well. Please make sure your children understand how important it is to wash their hands thoroughly after going to the toilet.
If your child has suffered from sickness or diarrhoea they must stay away from school until 24 hours have passed without suffering any symptoms.
200 Year Bi-centenary Celebrations
You will see attached to the Friday news is a poster to advertise the 200-year bi-centenary celebrations at the school on Saturday 15th October. Would you please display the poster in your window. If you would like an even bigger poster to put in your window, come to see Mr Dyer. Also, any parents/carers that have circus/entertaining skills and will be available on the 15th October please contact the office.
The school associations are asking parents if they could donate any home made delicacies for the bi-centenary celebrations. Further information will follow.
