Messages this week

• RESCHEDULED Class & Leaver's Photos - All classes and Y6 Leavers' will be having photos taken on Monday 8th June - Please note: there will be no PE on this day. Please ensure that children are wearing full school uniform including a jumper/cardigan (no fleeces or leavers hoodies please)

• Y6 Summer Fair Stalls - We are so excited to see the brilliant, creative stall ideas our children are dreaming up for this year's Summer Fair! This week your child would have thought of ideas within their groups. To help bring their visions to life, the school will be supplying as many basic materials as we can. However, we do need a little help from home to get things across the finish line. If your child’s stall requires a specific activity setup, a guaranteed "prize every time," or a larger star prize, these items will need to be provided from home. We always encourage the children to keep their ideas simple, fun, and low-cost. In fact, some of our most popular and successful stalls in the past have been the simplest—like 'Knock Down the Cans,' 'Lucky Dips,' and 'Guess What’s in the Box!' Thank you so much for your continued support in making this fair a great event for the children.

• Y6 Wizard of Oz Tickets - If you have not yet booked your 2 Wizard of Oz tickets, please do so before Monday 8th June to secure your preferred performance date/time. From Monday, any un-booked tickets will be released for parents/carers to book additional tickets if they wish. These will be available on a first-come, first-served basis.
• Y6 Prom Dress Code - We have had some queries from parents regarding the dress code for the Year 6 Prom. This is our first prom and it is intended as a special occasion to mark the end of their time in Junior School. To keep things simple, the dress code is smart casual (no sportswear, please). Suits and dresses are absolutely fine if they wish to wear them, but there is absolutely no expectation or need to buy new clothes.
• EXTENDED DEADLINE - Year 6 Leaver's Book - If you have not done so already, can you please send in your photos for the leaver's book (click here: https://forms.gle/v8sKSPkPngR7qBiy5) The deadline has been extended until next Thursday (11th June).
