  20. Dates for your diary

  21. Parent Communication * Please inform the adult in the morning of any changes to school pick up so that we may write in the Parent communication book. • Please inform the adult if your child is to attend any after school clubs. • A medical note will be given to your child if they have been hurt. We will always relay this to you verbally if you are picking up your child. • Please wait for all children to leave before approaching adults for discussion after school.

  22. Mobile Phones Parents are requested not to use their mobile phones while in school. Phones should be on silent and out of sight. When you are bringing or collecting your children to/from school, please ensure that your mobile phone is turned off. It is an important time to talk and share with your child. We do however allow parents to photograph or video school events such as shows or sports days using their mobile phones – but insist that parents do not publish images (e.g. on social networking sites) that include any children other than their own. 

  23. Parking As a driver you have a responsibility to park in a safe and considerate manner; if you don't you could be endangering a child's life.Please park with care and help make the area near and around our school a safer place for pupils.Please note: the car park is for staff use only.If you need to drive your child to school, for the safety of all our families, please remember: No parking on single or double yellow lines No double parking No stopping, dropping or parking on the School Keep Clear yellow zig zags No parking on corners or junctions especially near the school entrances Please do not block driveways

  24. Walk to School There will be many things throughout this year where your child will be encouraged to walk to school. In class your child will record how they get to school on the WOW Travel Tracker and those who walk once per week for a month are rewarded with a themed badge. It's fun and easy to take part in. Just a few minutes of a teacher's day is all it takes to make a big difference.

  25. Remember that if you have any concerns then please come and speak to me. Mrs Lennox will be happy to make an appointment for you, and I will be more than happy to meet with you – before or after school.
