Introducing our six new Christian Values:
Friendship, Respect, Thankfulness, Peace Courage, Trust
Congratulations to these pupils who read many books
between them for the Southwark Library Summer
Reading Challenge. We had more pupils than ever making
the most of our wonderful local libraries.
Respect this week:
Jade, Xin, Chantal, Lottie, Fraizer, Evie, Kareem,
Nicholas, Halle, Belle, Teddy, Maisie.
Are you reading at home?
Please remember to hear your child read every day, including weekends and
holidays. The expectation is children will still read at home every day in half
term and parents/carers sign the reading diary. Remember this is part of the
home/school agreement that you have signed and a vital skill for life for your
child to have. Don’t forget to join a local library if you haven’t already. We
are lucky to have such a great resource at Canada
Water which is also free!
Attendance Matters
A reminder for parents and carers that if your child can not come to school you must let us know in advance
and before 9am registration on the day. If this is a planned absence such as a medical assessment or visit
to a secondary school documentation should be brought to school ahead of the day of absence. If you leave
a message on the answer machine this helps us to account for every missing child but is not enough to
secure a valid reason for absence. On return to school you must follow up all absences in writing. This
documentation will be kept against the absence mark. To secure authorized absences please follow our
policy as absences with no written evidence can and in most cases will be classed as unauthorised.
