A warm welcome back to term 5, after an extremely warm (wasn’t it brilliant?) Easter break.
As you all know, school is closed this Friday to commemorate the royal wedding. In order to ensure that the children know exactly what is happening, and why this event is so important it requires a day off school, we have dedicated these three days to activities and learning opportunities all about the wedding, the royal family and about the history connected to it. Assemblies and other activities are also dedicated to celebrating the wedding.
We would like to end the week on a shared celebration, so we will be holding a “street party” in our central playground from 2-3. All children will have lunch as normal, but then we will end the afternoon together. The reason for this letter is to ask two favours.
1. If you could contribute something small, e.g., biscuits or cakes, to the school for the street party, we would much appreciate it. Drinks will be provided by the school – we just need snacks please.
2. If anyone has any photos of street parties past, e.g., 1977, 1981, which they are happy to loan to us to put on display, we would be very grateful to see them.
Children need to be in school uniform throughout the proceedings please – uniform for the first day back was outstanding, many thanks to you all.
School closes at 3.20 on Thursday 28th and re-opens for children and staff on Tuesday 3rd May.
Have a great week and a brilliant May Day weekend everyone.
