Johnston Community School Friday 18th March

Dear parents and carers,

The weather has really taken a turn this week and it does feel like spring is in the air. It has been lovely to walk around after school watching children smile and play, whilst participating in after school clubs. We are hoping to add a few more clubs to our offer during the next few weeks. Thank you to the staff for making this so successful.

Today we held a non-uniform day to support both Comic Relief and the Ukraine appeal. In total, £365.12 was raised. Thank you to all of our families for their donations. The money will be split between the two charities.

After School Club Price Increase

As of April 25th 2022, we will begin charging for after school club by the hour, rather than the session. The new charge will be £4.00 per hour.

If you child is attending any of the new Johnston School Sports clubs activities and would then require after school provision, parents and carers will only be charged for one hour. During this time, pupils will be provided with a snack and fruit.

Thank you for your continued support,

Mrs. L. Jones an Miss. S. Codd.

Attendance

The pandemic has had a significant impact on pupil attendance, but we feel that it is time for us to begin encouraging attendance as much as possible.

A massive "Well Done" to Class One who were the highest attending this week . Da iawn pawb! I will be discussing a small treat with Mrs. Roach-John and Mrs. Gainfort on Monday morning!

Remember, if any class achieves 100% attendance for an entire week, they win an extra special treat!
