Open Evening
You are invited to look at your daughter’s books on Tuesday 17th July between

Year 6
On Wednesday 18th year 6 girls should bring a packed lunch to school as they will
be having a picnic followed by a ‘fun’ afternoon.
On the last day of term, Thursday 19th July, Year 6 girls may bring into school a
spare shirt (with your permission), for pupils to sign.
Uniform you no longer require
We are happy to receive uniform that your daughter no longer wants or has
grown out of please donate. We particularly need clean socks.
Lost property
If your daughter has lost any thing this term ask her to look in the boxes in the
Medical Room.
Library Books and Reading Books
Please return to school any books belonging to the school. Our library at present
looks depleted.
Year 6 Production

Pierced Ears
If you have plans to have your daughter’s ears pierced please do so at the very
beginning of the Summer Holidays so that her earrings can be removed for
school at the start of the new term
Year 6 SATs Results
Our results for our year 6 SATs this year are outstanding. The girls scored
over 90% for both maths and English, with one pupil scoring 100% in her maths
test.
Thank you
 To all the parents/carers who have supported at the Sports Days in
recent weeks.
 To all the parents/carers who have come into school and helped out in
various ways especially the dedicated group who have helped with reading
every Friday afternoon.
 I would also like to thank all the volunteers who have accompanied our
children on visited to various places both locally and further afield.
Goodbye to Year 6
I would like to take this opportunity to say goodbye to all the girls as they leave
and move on to their various secondary schools. Also to say goodbye to many of
the Year 6 Parents / Carers who are leaving us after many years of visiting the
school with their daughters. Best wishes for the future.
Year 6 Revision Books
If your daughter still has her Maths KS2 Revision Book at home please return it
to school, thank you.
Holiday Diaries Years 3, 4 and 5
On many reports we wrote about your daughters needing to practise their
writing skills during the summer holidays, to use her writing skills. This week
your daughter will be given a Holiday Diary to record some of the activities that
occur during the summer. We do not expect your daughter to write every single
day but a few entries each week, writing about something special would be very
helpful. She could also draw pictures, stick in any post cards, entry tickets or
photographs. The book will be returned after the new teacher has read it. The
girls who complete the task will be given an opportunity to attend Film Club.
End of term
On the last day the girls may wear their own clothes to school for a contribution
of £1 which will go towards equipment for Mrs Smith’s Kitchen.
School ends at 2pm on Thursday 19th July.
New Term
Our doors open to pupils on Tuesday 4th September at 8.30 a.m.
Please ensure your daughter has a PE Kit and that all her clothes particularly her
jumper/cardigan are marked with her name.
