Head of School Message
Happy New Year!
It has been lovely welcoming the children back to school this week. They have all coped brilliantly with the early mornings and frosty starts to the day, and it has been great to see them get straight back into their school routines after the Christmas break.
Although this is a slightly shorter term than the Autumn, it is busy with lots of exciting events for the children to look forward to. We have our Year 5/6 Arthog trip coming up in a couple of weeks time which I know the children are counting down the days to! Mr Harris and I would like to invite parents who have any questions about the upcoming trip for an informal chat at 2.30pm on Thursday 16th January. If you are not able to attend but have questions, please pop the office an email.
A letter has gone out this week to Maple Class parents about an upcoming trip to Preston Montford on Friday 7th February. It is also available on Class Dojo/the school website.
Willow Class will be beginning their Forest School sessions with Kris Kirby, our new Forest School Leader, on Monday. Kris is also running the afterschool Forest School session for Y2-Y4 and there are still some places available – book now to avoid disappointment!
Chris Aston from Aston’s Kickboxing Academy ran the first afterschool Kickboxing session this week for our KS2 pupils. There are still 4 places available for his half term if anyone would still like to join. The children were absolutely exhausted after their session this week!
A quick reminder that in the case of adverse weather where the school is unable to open safely, a message will be sent to Shropshire Council and posted on their website https://www.shropshire.gov.uk/school-closures/primary-schools/. It will also be posted on the school website and Class Dojo at the earliest opportunity.
Have a lovely weekend everyone,
Mrs Mavin
