Dear Parents and Carers,
as we look towards the end of term we still have so much to fit in!
PARENT-TEACHER MEETING BOOKINGS
The booking system for the Parent-Teacher Meetings in the last week of term will open on Monday 4th July at 8am and close on Tuesday 12th July at lunchtime. This will be an opportunity to discuss your child’s latest attainment report which you will receive on Friday 15th July. You will be able to celebrate many successes and look towards the next academic year.
PARENT PARTNERSHIP MEETING
We are looking forward to meeting with as many parents as possible on Thursday 7th July at 9.00 am or 2.40pm to look at how home and school can work together in the best way to support the children’s learning. This follows on from our Community Circles with the children discussing the same topic. We will share their thoughts with you at the meeting. Mr Hughes and I will be leading the meetings.
ROCK STEADY CONCERT
This will be at 9.15 am on Friday 8th July 2022. Parents of children who have lessons with ‘Rock Steady’ are warmly invited to attend and watch their young ‘rock stars’ in action.
TIME TO SHINE
We are looking forward to seeing you at our next ‘Time To Shine’ event on Friday 8th July at the end of the school day. The children will have chosen their 3 pieces of work that they are most proud of to share with you.
SPORTS DAY
The children will be competing in their house colours. We are really excited to be holding a Sports Day after the last two years!! The house colours are as follows-
| St. Andrew – Blue |
| St. David – Yellow |
| St. George – Red |
| St. Patrick – Green |
They will need to wear a T shirt in this colour with their normal PE shorts and trainers.
FOREST SCHOOL NEW DATES
Due to unforeseen circumstances we have needed to change the dates for the final Forest School sessions. Mr Slade is now unable to lead them. Mr Floyd who is our Premises Officer will lead these sessions so that the children do not miss out.
| 12.7.22 Bramber Class |
| 14.7.22 Amberley Class |
| 18.7.22 Bodiam Class |
| 19.7.22 Hastings Class |
YEAR 6 PRODUCTION SEAT ALLOCATIONS
The seat allocation booking system will open on Monday 4th July at 4pm. Each child will have two seats for each performance. We cannot have any toddlers or siblings attending due to the number restrictions. The rest of the school will be able to watch the performance earlier in the week.
PRAYER FOR JULY
Some of our Year 2 children in Portchester class have written this month’s prayer for us. They wanted us to think about the value of ‘kindness’.
NEXT ACADEMIC YEAR
Please find attached the staffing arrangements for next academic year. We are really excited to be opening an 11th class which we will call Cowdray Class. You will receive a ParentMail detailing your child’s class for next year shortly after this ParentMail. Please be assured that we have thought really carefully about placing children in order to help them learn best.
Have a fantastic weekend.
Take care
Kim Huggett
