Appleton Echo

I'd like to start by thanking everyone for coming along to the family consultations earlier this week. It was great to hear so many positive conversations and to hear about how happy our children really are at school. I also think it's really important to thank the teachers who wanted to continue with face-to-face meetings, rather than going virtual (video) like many other schools have done.

It has been business as usual in our classrooms. Right across school, we've seen focussed children who are very knowledgeable about their learning and able to talk to adults at length and with a rich vocabulary.

Finally, I'd like to apologise for the inconvenience of our Air Source Heat Pump installation, which is taking a little longer than expected. Hopefully, they'll be finished soon and our routines can return to normal.

Have a super weekend everyone!

Each week we will have a question which is designed to develop thinking and reasoning skills and to enhance self esteem with an emphasis on collaborative inquiry.

This week your children have been discussing the philosophy question below. What do you think?

If you are thinking about getting involved with the PTA please ask speak to Lisa at admin@ar.starmat.uk or pop along to our next meeting which is on Thursday 21st November held in the main hall at school.

If you are thinking of having a sort out of your toys before Christmas, Appleton Roebuck Preschool are looking for good quality sellable donations for a Toy Jumble that they are hosting at Allsaint Church on 17th November.

Could we ask for your help encouraging children to push their bikes and scooters across the playground at drop off and pick up times. Many thanks!

A polite reminder that we have children in school who have severe nut allergies. Please ensure that you do not bring nuts on to the school site or include them in packed lunches.

Thank you for your support with this.
