Oh Christmas Tree!

Another busy week at the Junior school has seen the Christmas tree go up in the Hall. Thank you must go to Mr. O' Connor and staff for their help with this. It does look great and adds an air of excitement to each day's assembly for the pupils. 

Thank you to those parents who have completed their parental surveys. The responses are very positive, which gives the staff lots of confidence and value that their efforts are appreciated. These have been shared with staff and specific parents will be spoken to regarding their feedback should this warrant it. 

On Thursday, some of our Governors visited for their first Challenge day of the year. They were looking at our foundation curriculum as their priority focus. They spoke to our Infant Leaders and some subject leaders in the HIDE and were impressed with what they saw and heard.  

The seasonal illnesses are rearing their heads again, so please encourage all your children to follow the catch it, kill it, bin it approach to common coughs and colds. Please encourage them, as we do, to wash hands and sanitise regularly to stop the further spread of these illnesses.  

In the week to come, we have the second dose of the flu vaccine on Tuesday and on Friday we have our Christmas dinner and Christmas jumper day to look forward to. On that same day, we have our Year 3 pupils visiting the Infant school to watch the dress rehearsal of the Infant Extravaganza. I am sure it will be worth watching and very exciting. We cannot wait!

Have a great weekend everyone!
