Sensory and Wildlife Garden

We are delighted to let you know that we have been awarded a grant for the Sensory and Wildlife Garden. There is voting in 3 Shrewsbury Tesco stores this week to top up the grant and all you need to do is simply collect a token from the till and vote. Thank you in advance for your support.

Sickness absence

Please could we remind all parents and guardians that if your child is sick or has diarrhoea they must not return to school until 48 hours after their last episode of being ill.

Thank you in advance for your cooperation.

Spaghetti Maths

Thank to everyone who was able to attend the Spaghetti Maths assembly this morning or who has spoken to Helen or Lisa in the office about the after-school club.  Children really enjoyed the assembly and have brought a leaflet home this evening explaining how to book a place on the block of 6 sessions.

Spaghetti Maths – Assembly Reminder

This Thursday 25th February the school will be hosting an exciting assembly for Years 1-6 delivered by Spaghetti Maths, where ‘Jonny Cube’ will show the children some brilliant maths tricks and even blow a square bubble; parents are welcome to come along and watch the fun.

Following the assembly Spaghetti Maths would like to run a series of after-school maths clubs, aimed at inspiring the children with a new approach to learning maths.  They will focus on fun, hands on learning and discovery, with sessions on gravity, pop up shapes and amazing number patterns. After each session the children will get to take home what they have done, to continue the learning at home.
You can visit the company’s website for more information www.spaghettimaths.co.uk
If you are interested, please come along to the assembly in the School Hall at 9:15 a.m.  on the 25th or speak to Mrs Helen Jones for more information.

February Half-Term Newsletter

Condover Residential

If you have not already returned it, the second instalment for the Year 3/4 visit to Condover is due by the end of February. Thank you for the monies received last week.

World Book Day

We are having another dressing-up day for World Book Day on Thursday 3rd March and children (and staff!) can come to school dressed up as a book character of their choice. Children will receive a £1 book voucher next week which can be spent in a range of participating stores; there is no charge for coming to school in non-uniform.

FOBs Valentine Disco – Thank You

Thank you to all the adults involved in FOBs and our resident DJ/balloon modeller/ entertainer Doug for another fantastic disco! Together with the recent Film Night, these events have raised over £440 which will benefit all the children of the school.
