Hi Parents/Carers

Just a note to let you know that you are invited into school next Tuesday 28th March (2:40pm for a 2:45 start and a 3:15 end) to see the children perform in a mini Ukulele concert. We will be performing outside under the shelter by our classroom.

We look forward to seeing you.

Following Ukulele sessions held within school for Y6 each week, please see below details of an after-school club run through Essex Music Services for those interested in continuing.  See also Ms Skeaping's letter and continuation letter below.

Tuesday 4th October

Hi Year 6 and Parents/Carers,

Just a note to clarify some details about the sleepover. The £5 that is collected is for a £1 challenge that the children participate in on the evening. The money is then spent on breakfast for the Saturday and anything left over is put towards breakfast during SAT's week. I hope that makes sense.

Also, we use the mats in the hall for the children to sleep on - they will need to bring a sleeping bag/duvet and pillow. If you have a camping mat or something similar these would be great to use as we only have a limited amount of mats. Sadly, no airbeds can be used.

We will watch a film once we are back from the treasure hunt and have completed the challenge. Mr Worton-Geer spoke to the children yesterday and they would like to watch Harry Potter. This will need permission as they are rated PG or above; a Parentmail will be sent out. I heard a rumour about sweets (my favourite are strawbs, cola-bottles, all sour sweets!! Just kidding!!!!) of course they can bring snacks, sweets etc. but these are not provided for by us or from the £5.

If I think of anything else, I will add a note here and on the web-page. I am really looking forward to it and having some fun with the children and getting to know them outside of the classroom.

Have a lovely evening.

Mrs Collins P.S. I am joking about sweets. I have been to Costco already :)

Good evening,

Just a note to say that I have rearranged the sleepover for Friday 14th October - a Parentmail will be sent out with the details tomorrow.

Also, keep an eye out for the Parentmail with details about our trip to Harry Potter World.

Best wishes,

Mrs Collins
