Selection Boxes from Santa

Keyboard and Drum Lessons

If your child is interested in learning how to play the Keyboard or Drums next term, please contact the school office as soon as possible for further information. (This does not include the children who are already having keyboard lessons).

Winter Financial Support – Free School Meal Vouchers

Dear Parents/Guardians

Many people’s financial circumstances have changed due to the pandemic and a lot of people won’t realise they are now entitled to claim support that they weren’t entitled to before.

You may be eligible for free school meals, which if claimed quickly will also entitle you to vouchers over the the winter holiday period.

It takes a few minutes to check your eligibility and apply for the extra support. To do this please click on the following link. https://www.shropshire.gov.uk/free-school-meals/

If you apply by Thursday 10th December and your application is confirmed, you will receive a winter voucher worth £30.00 per child to help you over the two school week holidays. The voucher will be valid at a range of local supermarkets.

If you are already registered for free school meals, you will automatically receive the winter voucher which will be sent to the priority email registered with school.

If you are notified that your application has been confirmed  it would be helpful if you would also email admin@bicton.shropshire.sch.uk so that we know to expect your confirmation from the local authority.

Thank you.

 

Clubs

If you have not yet booked before and after school clubs on sQuid for this week, can you please do so as a matter of urgency. If no children are booked in for clubs there may not be staff available to stay in school.

Booking is therefore essential.

REMINDER: Sweets Sale – Friday 20th November

As FOBS are unable to run their Friday sweet sales at the moment, to raise much-needed funds for school. This Friday children can buy a pre-prepared mixed bag of sweets for 50p. The bags of sweets will be sold in each classroom at the end of the afternoon for children to take home.

Children need to bring the correct money in an envelope or clear bag and the monies collected will be passed to the FOBs treasurer the following week. FOBS have also got a PayPal account, which they set up earlier this year to raise funds for our school library. Parents can pay for sweets directly through this account here, to save children having to bring money into school.
