Flitman 2 nd March 2018 Newsletter 676 Dear Parent/Guardian, Snow It has been a difficult week and the weather won. Hopefully, things will be back to normal next week. My thanks to everyone for their support and understanding about the decisions that had to be made. Parent’s Evening I will confirm the rescheduled date for parent’s evening as soon as I can next week. We will stick to a Thursday and just ask everyone to keep the same appointment time. Of course, if you cannot make the revised date let us know and we will sort another time for you. 3E Assembly 3E’s class assembly will now take place next Thursday morning at 9 a.m. 3PR – Parking Scheme The first winners of the 3PR Cup for last week are 4F who collected 119 tokens during the four days since we started on Tuesday which means that 93% of children walked into the 3PR zone relieving traffic from outside the school. Overall 76% of children in the school walked into the parking zone which is fantastic. A good start, I think. Year 6 Residential Trip - Overstrand The deposit was due by today. This needs to be sent to the centre to secure your child’s place. If you have not paid your deposit please send it in on Monday. PE Kit Please make sure your child has black plimsolls for indoor PE and trainers for outdoor PE. Footwear gets dirty when used outside, especially during the winter months, so cannot then be used indoors. Where children don't have indoor plimsolls and for some gymnastic activities, they need to take part bare- footed, so please also make sure that if your child has a verruca it is treated and covered.
