Dear Parents/Carers
WELLBEING AWARD FOR SCHOOLS
A huge thank you for your response to the ‘Wellbeing questionnaire’ sent out last week. The hard work and
commitment the school community has put in has paid off and we were thrilled to read so many positive
responses. There have also been some great ideas for what we can do to support our emotional wellbeing
provision further, and we will be taking these into consideration over the coming terms. Thank you once again
for your support.
READING BINGO
A big well done to the children who have been working towards completing their 'Reading Bingo' sheets. We
are thrilled that you have been having so much fun with books!
These bingo sheets should be in the back of your child's reading record - please encourage them to join in and
to let their teacher know if they have completed a line or house. If you have any questions, do ask your child's
class teacher.
BUCKETFILLING
Evie S (Y5): I just wanted to say how touched I have been with Evie's
caring attitude over the run up to Christmas. I am a florist, so this is
an extremely busy time for me, I have not been at home for breakfast
in the week running up to Christmas and I have been working
weekends. Evie has been very caring, asking how I am feeling, rubbing
my back and being a helpful girl at home. I was so touched the day
before Christmas Eve, I didn't know if I was going to have to go into
work or not, Evie said to me, "Mummy, do you know what I want for
Christmas?" I said, "no, Evie" she said, "I just want for you not to have
to go to work" It was so heart-warming and luckily I didn't have to
go!
I think the bucket filling idea is lovely.
BREAK THE RULES DAY
On Friday 25th January, we will be holding our second ‘Break the Rules’ day as part of our PTA fundraising.
Children will be given a list of rules that they can ‘break’ for a fine of 50p per rule - to a maximum of 4 rules.
Each child will need to decide which rules they are breaking in advance and fill out a form indicating which
ones they have chosen. Forms will be handed out next week. The rules children will be able to break are as
follows:
Paint your fingernails
Wear a temporary tattoo
Wear crazy hair/a wig/wacky hair accessories
Wear jewellery (no dangly earrings) e.g. necklaces,
bracelets, anklets
Uniform swap – swap 1 item of uniform e.g. shoes for
trainers, trousers for jeans, school jumper for own top (1
‘rule break’ for each item; to wear a ‘onesie this would
entail swopping both jumpers and trousers/skirts so would count as 2 rule breaks!)
Bring a favourite (reasonably sized) toy
15 minutes extra play
Come to school with your face painted*
Bring an unhealthy snack at break time
Bring a soft drink instead of water
*We would appreciate an army of parent volunteers first thing on this morning to paint as many faces as possible.
Please let Mrs Conroy know if you are able to help by popping into school or dropping her an email at
