St David's Day - Monday 1 March 2021

Monday 1 March 2021

St David's Day 2021 falls on Monday 1 March.  To celebrate this occasion all members of Yellow House are invited to wear an item of yellow on this day.  Make sure it shows on your Teams meetings and on your Seesaw uploads! 

Please do send us any photos of this and if any of you who love baking want to turn your skills to making Welsh cakes we'd love to see these too.  We'll aim to have a selection in next week's Courier. 

Please send to courier@crescentschool.co.uk.

World Book Day Date Change

Thursday 4 March 2021

Due to school returning on Monday 8 March, our planned day to celebrate World Book Day has been brought forward a day to Thursday 4 March; this is to allow staff to use the Friday to thoroughly fully prepare the school and ensure it is ready to welcome the children back into the classrooms. 

We still want the children to have the opportunity to dress up as a character from a book on the Thursday, if they wish, whether at home or in Key School.

As we cannot see all the children in school wearing their outfits, please send us pictures as we love to see them, we can put some in the Courier and even make a display of them if we have enough.  Please send them to courier@crescentschool.co.uk.

Wonders of the World Culture Day - Postponed

We have decided to postpone Wonders of the World day this term, we know it is worthwhile but have moved it into the Trinity Term calendar allowing time for the children to feel settled into school routines for the time that we are in.

I look forward to sharing the plans with you about this exciting day next term.
