Thank you to all the parents who baked and helped on the day, as well as everyone who turned out to support the event. Infant Trip to Clitheroe Castle Mrs Hamlett’s class are visiting Clitheroe Castle on Monday 6th October with the infant children from Leck Primary School. They will all need a packed lunch and drink, all disposable items please in a named carrier bag. An information sheet giving further details is included in the bag today. Junior Trip to Vindolanda The junior class are all visiting Vindolanda on Hadrian’s Wall on Wednesday 8th October. This trip will have an early start, due to the distance they need to travel. All pupils need to be at school for 8.20am; the bus will be leaving promptly at 8.30am. We hope to be back at school by 5pm. Pupils will all need a packed lunch and a sufficient drink for the day. They should wear their school jumpers with warm trousers and sensible shoes (trainers or walking boots) and have a waterproof coat. A detailed information sheet is included in their bag today. Parents Evenings Appointment sheets are now available near each classroom door for parents to sign up for an appointment to talk to your child’s teacher on either Monday 13th or Tuesday 14th October. Staff really value the opportunity to talk to parents on these evenings. Please ring school for an appointment, if it’s difficult for you to pop in and sign up. We will try and find a suitable time for you. School Uniform Please can we remind everyone to label all school uniform, including book bags etc. This allows us to reunite children with items found in school. We do also have a lost property box that parents are welcome to come and look in, should any items be missing. This box is kept in the corridor by the junior classrooms on the self where children put their lunch boxes. Second Hand Uniform We have a small stock of second hand uniform that the PTA organise. If you require any items please let us know in the Friday bag and we will have a look through the stock for you. We ask for a donation of £1 for items with the school logo and 50p for all other items.
