Forms, Forms.
Thank you to everyone who has completed all the forms included in last week’s bag. Please could we appeal for any outstanding ones to be returned in the bag on Monday. It is important that we always have the most up-to-date information regarding all the children.
PTA AGM.
The PTA AGM will take place on Monday, 18th September, at 2:30pm in the school hall. All welcome!
Junior Swimming.
Swimming lessons begin on Wednesday 20th September for pupils in years 3, 4 & 5, so please ensure that you help your child remember their swimming kit each week. The children do not have to wear swimming hats, the teacher just wants their hair to be away from their faces. Goggles can be worn, we suggest that you attach your child’s name.
Year 6 pupils will remain in school and have some time when they can be taught specific skills in their important final year.

All junior children will visit the School Library on Thursday 21st September, please remember that they can if they wish bring in a book they are enjoying at home.
