WELCOME BACK
We are really looking forward to seeing everyone back in school tomorrow, Tuesday 6th September.

ARRIVING & LEAVING
Please see the map below for a reminder of how classes will be arranged this year. We are maintaining the one way system around the school site as we have found it really helps ease of movement. Staff will be at the gates if you need any help with directions.
Gates will open at 8.40am and 3.20pm, with registration until 8.55am to ease the flow of children and parents coming into school.

WELCOME MEETINGS
We are pleased to invite parents and carers into school for Welcome Meetings where you meet the teachers and staff who will be working with your child and find out more about life in that class.
These meetings form a really important part of the start of the school year so we do hope you can make it. We have staggered the sessions so the parents with children in different year groups can make it to the different meetings.
Monday 12th September
- Year 6 - 3.45-4.15pm
- Year 5 - 4.15-4.45pm
Tuesday 13th September
- Year 4 - 3.45-4.15pm

UNIFORM
Please can we take this opportunity to remind you of the uniform policy. You can view this by clicking the button below.
We would like to draw your attention to the section about earrings. Our policy states that earrings must be completely removed for PE lessons. They cannot be taped over and children must be able to remove them themselves. PE equipment is also used at playtimes (such as bats, balls, skipping ropes, hoops). Children will not be permitted to use these whilst wearing earrings.
Please click the link below if you need a reminder about the new PE uniform. This will be the expectation for children on PE days in the new school year from Reception year upwards. (Just a reminder that Reception children do not usually start PE sessions until after Christmas, so there is no rush to purchase for those children.)
Please note, PE kit is not needed on the first day of school. Children and parents will be informed of PE days during the first week.
