What a lovely week of celebration!
This week we have shared our learning in science and art as part of our celebration assemblies. All children have had the opportunity to share their learning through a video montage. Froggy was extremely impressed with the way the children communicated their learning. Many of the children were able to make links with their current learning. Well done to all! Check out our year group videos below:

Next week, we are really looking forward to celebrating World Book Day. On Thursday, children are invited to wear their favourite PJs, bring a cuddly friend and their favourite book to share with their friends. The day is all about celebrating their love of reading. We are asking for a £1 donation to help us add to our classroom libraries. Any help would be greatly appreciated! As part of our celebrations Y3 and 4 pupils will also be visiting Hyde library on the following dates: Tuesday 5th March 3MG, Wednesday 7th March 3DY and 3BG, Thursday 7th March 3DY and 3JB. We would love it if parents could support our visit too! Please get in touch with the office if you are able to help.
Next weekend marks the start of Ramadan for our Muslim families. This is a month of fasting, prayer, reflection, charity, & community. During this month, some of our older pupils choose to fast, school have allocated a special place where children can rest over the lunchtime period. Please can we ask families to inform school if their child will be fasting. We will be finding out more in our assemblies next week and will be thinking of you all over the next 30 days. We are looking forward to marking Ramadan by promoting ‘acts of kindness’ within school and our local community.
On Wednesday, we had our next diversity group meeting to plan our Eid event. We were overwhelmed by the support and generosity from our community. Our Flowery Friends team have lots of things planned, including new inflatables, craft events, party games and of course lots of delicious food! The event takes place on Wednesday 17th April and tickets go on sale on Monday 25th March through Pembee. Last years event was a sell out so we would recommend purchasing tickets early.
Prior to the Easter break, we will be once again holding our Easter Egg Bingo, This is a chance for families to come together to win lots of chocolate prizes. Please note all children attending the event will leave with a prize. The event takes place on Wednesday 27th March with tickets going on sale from Monday 11th March.
Finally, can we remind all families to check the announcements in the app, as often important messages are sent out. It is vital that you update your contact details in the app too.
Thank you for your continued support

Punctuality and Absence
School starts at 8 45 and closes at 3 15. Please can we ask families to ensure children arrive on time as lateness disrupts learning and results in children missing valuable learning opportunities.
Likewise, if your child is going to be absent from school, please ring and provide a reason for their absence prior to the start of the school day. Parents are able to leave a message on our automated system.
Older Children
Following a few incidents over the last couple of weeks, please can we ask families with older children to remind them that they are unable to cut through our school playground. We understand that some older pupils need to collect siblings. Please could you remind them of our expectations to enable our school grounds to be safe for everyone.
