Dear Parents

I hope you had an enjoyable half term break and that you weren't caught up in any of the horrible travel delays that we all read about in the news. I enjoyed a nice quiet week at home apart from a three-day trip up to Edinburgh for a wedding and bit of sightseeing. It is always nice to get away and surprising just how quickly it fades into the distance as soon as you are back in work.

We had a wonderful Upper School Sports Day earlier in the week over at Princethorpe College. The children behaved themselves impeccably, supported each other, sympathised with losers and celebrated winners, just as we would hope they would. There were lots of parents there as well enjoying the occasion, many of you attending for the first time in three years. It is the turn of Year 1 and 2 for their Sports Day here at school on 21 June, with Reception on 27 June, and let's hope for similar weather for both of those when they come round.

With lots of other sports and musical events coming up in the near future, please keep a close eye on the Courier and your calendars to make sure you don't miss anything.

One important day to flag up is the Welcome Evening on Thursday 30 June, to which all parents whose children will be attending the school in September 2022 are warmly invited. In preparation for this, I have sent out a letter today that will arrive separately in your inbox, detailing some staffing changes for next year that I am sure will be of interest to you.

I hope you will have a relaxing weekend.
