Strike Day \u2013 Thursday 27th<\/sup> April<\/strong><\/p>\n

At Hornby, the majority of teaching staff are members of the NEU.<\/p>\n

The union has called for strikes over the issue of pay as well as recruitment and retention of staff. There are further issues around recent unfunded pay rises which have taken money away from our school budget and made it more difficult to provide for your children in both resourcing and staffing.<\/p>\n

On this occasion, the staff have informed me that they will<\/strong> be taking strike action on 27th<\/sup> April and thus, school will be closed<\/strong> on that day.<\/p>\n

I understand that this may cause a great deal of frustration and inconvenience for parents and carers; however, I am hopeful that you will understand the reasons for this decision and I would like to thank you for your continued patience and understanding.<\/p>\n

We are currently making decisions about the strike day on the 2nd<\/sup> May.<\/p>\n

Infant news<\/strong><\/p>\n

All the children have settled well back into school and are excited about our new Expeditions topic.<\/p>\n

Reminder for children in Year 2 to practise their recall of 2’s, 5’s and 10’s multiplication facts for increased fluency in maths lessons. Little and often practise is great.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The reception children will be doing some junk modelling soon, so any donations of items<\/u> which would usually go in your recycling bins are really helpful (cardboard\/plastic)<\/p>\n

Indoor and Outdoor Footwear <\/strong><\/p>\n

Just a reminder that your child will require indoor and outdoor footwear. Their indoor (School) shoes will be kept in their classroom at breaktimes and lunchtime where they will need outdoor footwear (trainers\/wellies) to go out and play, particularly on the grass. Any problems, please ask.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Labels<\/strong><\/p>\n

Please can we remind all parents to make sure that your childs clothing, particularly School jumpers and cardigans are labelled with your child name. At this time of year, we end up with a pile at the end of lunchtime, so it\u2019s great to know who\u2019s who\u2019s!<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Garden Gang<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Garden Girls are back to do Garden Gang with the children on a Thursday<\/strong> now that the weather has improved. Last year the Gang helped to produce lots of fruit and vegetables along with the circle area which we have used for growing trees, teaching and toasting marshmallows.<\/p>\n

If your child would like to join in, they will need to bring their wellies on a Thursday and meet in the garden area at morning break.<\/p>\n
