School dinners: Monday: Sausages; Tuesday: Roast Gammon; Wednesday: Knights and Princesses What a wonderful array of both shared our school
to celebrate St Georges Day. As well as some lovely bought costumes there were some homemade ones that showed a lot of ingenuity and effort. Well done to those families who took part. Anyone that still needs to hand in their 1 donation is encouraged to do so to support FOSTAs work with the school.
Toms Midnight Garden Thank you to all those who have already returned
the forms and money for what promises to be a great afternoon for the children.
with Mrs Brown in their Art lessons are currently designing and working on a series of banners depicting the Olympics throughout the decades. If you have any fabric, threads, silks etc. that the children can use for this project we would be very grateful. We are also collecting a variety of different plastic tops from jars, cartons, plastic bottles and containers for another art project later this term. Any size or colour would be appreciated as long as they are not metal. Many thanks for your support.

Please DO NOT park at Freshwater (there is no transport back there), all parents are asked to park in the field on the left hand side on the approach to the Needles Park at Alum Bay. We will then provide a shuttle Bus to shuttle all families to HF Holidays - Freshwater Bay for the start of the walk. Parking in the field at Alum Bay will be available from 8.30am, and the Shuttle Bus will run from 9am to 10.30am until all families are taken to HF Holidays - Freshwater Bay. You will be allowed to start walking from HF Holidays - Freshwater Bay between 9am and 11am. After you have completed the walk, you may then walk back up from the Needles Park to the field, there will be a designated path, please DO NOT walk in the road as there will be coaches and buses using the road!!! Please dont forget that ONLY those students with a walkers number will get a medal at the end, so make sure your children are wearing them!! And only those children that are registered and have been building up the miles before hand will get a medal. If your child does not take part on the day, we will be presenting medals at school assemblies after the walk.
