Strike Day Highly Likely
It is very likely that the school will be closed on the 10th of July due to strike action by the NUT, GMB and Unison. So that includes teachers, TAs and other staff members. As soon as I have confirmation from staff re: their intentions on that day I will let you know.
Friday Morning Sing-a-long
Just a reminder of our drop in sing-a-long on Friday mornings. All family members and children welcome. We have a sing-a-long with Mr Brazil from 8.30 until 8.45. Its great fun and good for your serotonin levels. You’ll find us in the hall.
On-Time Teds
This week’s Key Stage 1 winners are Year 1 and in Key Stage 2 the winners are Year 5. Well done to both classes for being on time for school!

The governors met yesterday for a full governors meeting. We are also in the process of re-constituting. We will let you know more about this once we have discussed and agreed the new make-up of the Middle Street governing body.
