Please arrive just five minutes before your workshop at the front door and you will be collected by a member of staff and escorted to the School Hall. Pupils will come and join the adults for the start of the session.

Cold refreshments will be available during the workshops and all materials will be provided. Adults just need to bring their thinking caps!

You will be free to leave when the session is complete. If your session is at the end of the day, you can take your child with you at that time.

We look forward to welcoming you and sharing our work on growth mindset.

Dear Year 3 and 4 Parents

We will be providing a Whitemoor Lakes 'drop-in' session next Thursday 31 March between 3.30pm and 4.00pm. The purpose of this is to address any queries, questions or concerns you might have about the upcoming trip, which takes place shortly after we return from the Easter holidays. 

Please note that we will not be providing information about groupings for sleeping, or groupings for activities at this time; the children will be given this information when we arrive at Whitemoor Lakes. 

We will gather together common questions after the session and send out some information to everyone with anything relevant that we think you would find useful. 

We will be in Room 3 (Year 4 classroom) from 3.30pm, so please come to the front door and you will be escorted down to the room.

Please note: 

We have had very high levels of interest in places for Reception and our Year 3 class for September 2022 entry at the Early Bird Application deadline stage. As a result, we have already allocated all of the available places in these year groups for September 2022. We are now operating waiting groups in these year groups for families who are still interested in a place, should a suitable one become available.

We are currently operating waiting groups in most other years apart from our current Reception and Year 1 classes (Year 1 and 2 for September 2022 entry) where we do have some places available as these year groups each have two classes.

We are already taking registrations for places in Reception and Year 3 starting in September 2023. It would be helpful for us to know as soon as possible if current Crescent families have a child who will be of Reception age in September 2023 and if you are likely to be interested in a place for them.

Tuesday 5 April 2022

Our Easter Service will be held in the School Hall on Tuesday 5 April, including a telling of the Easter story by the Choir and Class 5F.  Prayers will be led by members of F.R.O.G.

Parents of children involved in the service are able to book two tickets to attend. We do hope you will join us for the most important festival in the Christian year.

Please enter via the front entrance from 2.15pm where refreshments will be served prior to the service. We will start promptly at 2.30pm and finish by 3.30pm so children can be collected at normal dismissal time.
