Appleton Echo

After six amazing weeks of settling in and beginning our learning journeys, we're delighted with the progress that we can see in children's school books and in the classrooms. It's a real pleasure to see. What we also have to celebrate is the work towards the new writing strategy, led by Mrs Kirkpatrick. We had visitors to school this week to check on our progress and we're making huge strides with this too.

Next week, we'll be preparing for halloween and understanding more about the changing seasons in Science.

Have a super weekend everyone.

Please sign up for cashpot for schools at Adsa.

We are moving sessions to s Sunday morning (due to the light) for this block up to December. Also hoping to start a third older group if there is interest (though aware lots of children may be playing football on a Sunday morning!)

Many thanks,

Jill

We are looking forward to our school Harvest Festival which will take place on Monday 21st October, at 2pm. The event is taking place in the church and we would love our parent community to come and join us to celebrate.

During the festival we will be giving thanks for the harvest and the food it provides, as part of this we will be collecting food such as tins and packaged goods. The collection will be picked up from school on the day of the festival and be taken to York foodbank. Please have a look at the York Foodbank list of suggested items and bring your donations to school on the morning of the festival.

Thanks

Victoria

Dear Parent/Guardian,

Vaccination UK is attending your child's school for flu vaccinations.

For your child to receive their Nasal flu vaccination in school, please complete a YES consent form using the link below.

https://yny.schoolvaccination.uk/flu/2024/northyorkshire

If your child cannot have the Nasal spray, the injectable flu vaccine is available, and you will be able to choose that method on the consent form.

If you DO NOT wish for your child to have a flu vaccination, please complete a NO consent via the same link.

Club nights every Thursday from 3.15pm till 4pm for KS1 and KS2

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.
