Dear Parents/Carers,

Last Friday, a group of Year 1 pupils competed against the other schools in our Trust as part of our PAT Games programme for Multi Skills and I am pleased to announce that they won the competition! The pupils received a certificate and a medal in recognition of their achievements. Well done to all who took part.

This week, I was thrilled to be invited into the Year 1 classroom to listen to the pupils share their writing with me. The pupils have been working hard to write a character description of The Rainbow Fish

If you would like to send a small donation of non-perishable goods into school in support of this wonderful charity, please send donations by Friday 11th October. Thank you.

This year, in recognition of their achievement, pupils receiving a Star of the week certificate will have the additional reward of having lunch with myself or a member of the Senior Leadership Team at the end of each half term.

Regan W – For showing great enthusiasm and keenness to write a setting description. This was beautifully written and enabled the reader to imagine the setting so well! Well done Regan!

Nieve S – For displaying such interest in her Science unit this term and really wanting to make a wormery! Well done Nieve!

As the weather takes a turn, please ensure that children have suitable clothing for outdoor PE. Pupils will be able to remain in PE kits to walk home if their lessons are at the end of the day. Plain black jogging bottoms/leggings and plain black sweat tops/hoodies are acceptable.

Have a lovely weekend everyone!

Yours Sincerely,

Mrs Adams

Thursday 10th October is Mental Health Day! Children can wear their pyjamas/comfies for a £1 donation. We will also be holding a Rainbow Bun Sale and will be very grateful for any colourful cakes that our budding Larks Hill bakers would like to bring on Thursday Morning. Children can bring in up to £1 for the bun sale, with each bun costing 50p. All proceeds from the Pyjama day and Bun Sale will go towards new library books promoting good mental health.
