Lydia’s Labyrinth - Just a reminder to parents who would like to help, please turn up with a spade and a little energy at 10.00 am on Saturday 17th June in the school playing field. Children are welcome to assist as well.
New Reception Parents - We welcomed our new Reception parents to our school on Thursday with the next visit arranged for parents and children on Wednesday 21^st June from 2.30 pm – 3.30 pm in the school hall.
Midday Lunch Supervisor - We are looking to appoint a Midday Supervisor to cover Monday and Fridays. The salary would be £7.90 per hour and the working time is 11.30 am to 1.15 pm. The role involves helping to set up the hall for lunches , supervise and assist children in the dining hall and on the playground, ensuring they are safe and play happily in an appropriate manner. A Food Hygiene Certificate and DBS clearance will be required, but these can be arranged by Mrs Meaden. If you are interested, please see Mrs Burr or Mrs Meaden in the school office.
Oats Allergy Alert – We have received this-to date information from Wells Blue Catering concerning allergens in particular oats, we were always under the assumption that oats are Gluten free but, they contain a protein called avenin. Flour products contain gliadin, hordein and secalin and these are presently tested when detecting coeliac disease, however, one in three can also be allergic to avenin in oats. I am very sorry about this confusion, please do not give your students who are coeliac any flapjack or any products that contain oats.
Android or IOS devices required - if you or family have any working electronic tablets/devices (Ipad, Samsung, Lenovo, Android, IPhone 4s or newer etc) gathering dust in drawers and would be willing to donate them to school (due to recently upgrading older models to newer tech), it would be very much appreciated.  We will be implementing a new Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) system from September that requires the use of electronic devices and I would be really grateful for any donations.  Thank you for your continued support.  Miss S Moore.
Lunch Orders – The menu for w/c 19^th and 26^th June has been uploaded to ParentMail today. Please respond by Tuesday 13^th June. Some parents have pre-booked the term in advance (paper version available in office). We have not sent a ParentMail lunch request to those children who regularly have sandwiches from home. If you require lunches to be booked please come into the office for a form.
