Aberthaw Road, Newport, South Wales NP19 9QP Phone (01633) 277905 Fax (01633) 280365 E-mail – alway.primary@newport.gov.uk Website – www.alwayprimaryschool.co.uk Head – Richard Hughes B.Ed Hons NEWSLETTER th 26 March 2015 CHANGE TO LUNCHTIME ARRANGEMENTS Our lunchtime school meal providers Chartwells will be extending the number of days when school sandwiches will not be available to include a Monday. This will mean from the first week after the Easter break no sandwiches will be available on a Monday, Wednesday or a Friday. The new menus will reflect suitable replacements for sandwiches. CARS ON SITE We appear to still be getting parents driving onto the school site to pick up and drop off children, at the beginning, the middle, and the end of the day. We have asked on numerous occasions if you could refrain from doing this, as it compromises the safety of the children in particular, and also other pedestrians on site. Parking and turning space on the school grounds is already an issue, and this only makes the matter worse. Please help us before there is an accident! PARENTS VISITING SCHOOL Can I please ask that all parents picking up pupils after school remain outside of the school building unless special arrangements have been made to collect pupils from reception for specific reasons? If parents need to see class teachers for any reason they can come to the main reception via the main door, that way we can monitor and control visitors to the school. Please be assured this is a safety measure for all of our pupils and staff and not meant to inconvenience pupils. EASTER BONNETS Many thanks to all parents who worked with their children to produce such brilliant creations. Congratulations to the prize winners but well done to all who took part. NATIONAL TESTS Tuesday May 5th to Tuesday May 12th. Please can I emphasise the importance of these tests and ask that ALL pupils are in school during this period so that they can sit tem Wishing you all a very Happy Easter Richard Hughes Head Teacher Eco Schools 2011 Chair of Governors – Graham Thompson Vice Chair – Sally Edge Basic Skills Quality Mark Aberthaw Road, Newport, South Wales NP19 9QP Phone (01633) 277905 Fax (01633) 280365 E-mail – alway.primary@newport.gov.uk Website – www.alwayprimaryschool.co.uk Head – Richard Hughes B.Ed Hons Eco Schools 2011 Chair of Governors – Graham Thompson Vice Chair – Sally Edge Basic Skills Quality Mark
