Welcome to our Weekly Newsletter 19 October 2012

Thank you all for your continuing kind thoughts and best wishes for Ms Kennedy. I have passed on your messages and she would like me to thank you all. Ms Kennedy continues to make a good recovery and I will update you after the half-term break if we have any further news on her return. Obviously Ms Kennedy will need to act on the advice of medical professionals in order for her to make the best recovery but I know in the meantime she is keeping an eye on us all via the school blog! Toni Elliott.

SPOTLIGHT Walk to School Week On Monday we will be starting our annual Walk to School Week. Any child who walks, bikes or scoots to school will earn a sticker for their reward card which they will then get to take home. Anyone who comes to school by car can earn a reward sticker if they walk the last 5 minutes of their journey (remember, you still need to arrive in school by 8:55 to join your lines). School Meal Theme Days As part of our continuing work around healthy eating we are planning some themed lunch days this year. The first day will be Bonfire Night on Monday November 5th. The Special menu will consist of Hot Diggedy Dogs/ Vegetarianl Hot Diggedy Dogs and Sticky Toffee Pudding or Campfire cup cakes. The children will also be able to decorate a Bonfire placemat in class or at home. Look out for the Christmas Menu coming soon! The Christmas menu will be available for children who normally have packed lunches too (at a cost of 2.25), watch out for the ticket and payment details.
