Dear Parents and Carers,
It always gives me a sense of pride when we see children of Yapton C. of E. Primary School being the best versions of themselves – living life in its fulness.
Our Year 6 children have certainly been demonstrating this as they have given performance of their production ‘The School of Pop.’ All 45 children shone brightly and they delivered engaging, entertaining and memorable performances to the rest of the school and then twice to their families. The journey towards the performances involved lots of hard work from the children and a number of members of staff who helped with the line acting, choreography and prop making.
End of Academic Year Attainment Reports
The children have brought home their End of Academic Year Attainment reports. Reports for children EYFS, Year 1, Year 4 and Year 6 contain the outcomes of the statutory assessments that have been carried out this term. Thank you to those of you who have already booked an appointment to speak to your child’s class teacher during next week’s Parent-Teacher Progress Meetings where you will have the chance to discuss the reports further. If you haven’t yet made that appointment, please do. It will avoid you being ‘chased’ by the teachers!
Spanish Visitors
On Thursday 6 visiting teachers from Madrid, in Spain, came to visit our school. As well as being really impressed by the calm and purposeful learning atmosphere throughout the school, they visited the EYFS, Key Stage 1 and Lower Key Stage 2 classes to deliver short and enjoyable Spanish lessons. They were then ‘blown away’ by the Year 6 production.
Earrings
Please can I remind you our School Uniform List clearly states that no jewellery is to be worn other than one set of small stud earrings if your child have their ear or ears pierced. This is line with Local Authority Health and Safety Guidelines.
Summer Holiday Camp
JC Sports will be running a Summer Holiday Sports Camp here at our school on the 24th and 25th July and then two days a week during the first 3 full weeks of August. Paid places and HAF places are available to be booked. You can use this link

I hope you have a lovely weekend. Stay safe in the very warm sunshine.
Take care
Kim Huggett
