Monk Fryston Newsletter 10.5.24
The school target for next week is;
SATS week from Monday 13th May. ALL children please arrive on time to save disruptions.
Next week is KS2 SATS week. Please ensure that children arrive every day, on time so that our Year 6 children have as little disruption as possible during their important test time. We want to preserve a calm and quiet environment every morning.
Parent Survey.
There is still time to contribute to the parent survey at www.edurio.com/poll/1gPJ0u . Please do give some time to complete it as governors will use the outcomes to influence our strategic planning next year. It is open until Friday 17th May.
Warmer Weather
Now that warmer weather is upon us, please help by making sure that your child is equipped for the sunshine. They should bring a sunhat (named please!) into school to wear when they are learning and playing outside, and suncream should be applied before they come in a morning.

School Calendar
Free school meals for all years for pupils whose families receive financial support.
If you are in receipt of certain benefits, your child could also qualify for free school meals during all school years. To qualify you must be receiving:
Universal Credit, provided you have an annual net earned income of no more than £7,400, as assessed by earnings from up to three of your most recent assessment periods (£616.67 per month)
Income Support
Income-based Jobseeker’s Allowance
Income-related Employment and Support Allowance
Support under part six of the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999
The guarantee element of Pension Credit
Child Tax Credit, provided you are also not entitled to Working Tax Credit and have an annual household gross income that does not exceed £16,190 (as assessed by HMRC)
Working Tax Credit run-on, paid for four weeks after you stop qualifying for Working Tax Credit
Please note that contributions-based benefits, including contribution-related Jobseekers' Allowance do not entitle you to claim free school meals.
You will receive an instant decision on whether your application is successful. If it is, we will fully process the application in 5 working days and notify the school. Once the school has received this your child can begin enjoying free school meals. You should continue to pay until confirmation comes through. Schools may be able to arrange reimbursement of payment made while your entitlement is being confirmed.
Free school meals claims cannot be backdated. They are awarded from the date we receive the application, once eligibility is confirmed. This is because there is a legal requirement for a request to be made, before a free school meal can be provided. If you are not entitled to free school meals, you will be notified in writing.
