Welcome back for the final half term of the school year. We would like to say that it feels like summer, but sadly, it doesn't yet! We hope you all had a lovely half term break and your children are looking forward to the half term ahead.

This week's school attendance: 95.4%

School attendance for the year so far: 95.2%

Class of the week are 1RW with 99.2% attendance and 6LC with 100% attendance.

Well done to both classes.

As ever we aim for 96% attendance. Children with better attendance are proven to achieve better at school. Thank you for your support in this.

On Monday, the School Council had the opportunity to visit City Hall in Bradford to find out more about the work of Bradford Council, local government and democracy. They had a tour of the historical building, met with Councillor Susan Hinchcliffe and even had a chance to sit in the Council chambers! The children asked some fantastic questions on their visit.

On Wednesday 3rd July, pupils will have the opportunity to meet and spend time with their new class teacher. At the end of the day, you will be invited to collect your child from their new classroom exit and you are welcome to pop in to the new classroom and to informally meet their new teacher. As normal, we will be holding curriculum evenings in September for the new Year 1 to Year 6 classes when you can find out more about your child's curriculum and visits for the year, but we hope this extra chance to pop into school in July might help some children (or parents and carers) who are worrying about the move to a new year group.

Prior to this date, you will be informed of who your child's new class teacher will be.

As you will be aware, recently, unfortunately, there have been reports of a few ‘suspicious’ people around school. If you witness anything, as well as informing school, please can you ring and report this to the non-emergency 101 police number. Whilst we always do this as a school, the police like to speak to those who have witnessed things directly. Therefore they have asked that we pass this message to parents and carers.

Wrose quarry wetlands - on Wednesday 19th June some members of the School Council will be attending the launch of Wrose quarry wetlands. These developments will hopefully hugely benefit the people of Wrose and the surrounding area.

Clean air day- a number of our children will be attending the Bradford Clean Air event on 20th June, exploring all things related to clean air. They will have the opportunity to investigate the causes of air pollution, look at aerosols and their air pollution, make air pollution catchers and view mini hydrogen cars and see how they work.
