Reading For Pleasure

We know we have very keen readers at Crescent School and it would be lovely to gather some pictures of your child(ren) enjoying their books over the Easter break, whether on holiday, travelling, in a cosy corner, cuddled up with family or wherever you find them.  Please email your pictures to me at sarahweb@crescentschool.co.uk and hopefully we can make a great display of them all.

Happy Reading!

Year 5 Easter Read

Year 5 have received a class reader to enjoy over the Easter holidays, Kensuke's Kingdom by Michael Morpurgo.  If they have already read this book then please encourage them to read another book by the same author.

I am happy for pupils to share the book with you, listen to it or read it themselves. They will all need to have completed reading their book by the start of the Trinity Term so that we can work from it together.

Uniform Changes - Reminder

School uniform is an important way that we build a shared identity and provides pupils with the opportunity to establish a sense of community and to feel pride in their school. Any changes to uniform need to be carefully thought through, not least when new expenditure is required.  
 
With this in mind, I wanted to share with you some proposals regarding the school uniform policy for September 2024. You might well be pleased to hear that this will not involve any changes to the uniform you need to buy or require any additional kit to be purchased.   
 
In the current Joining Pack and Parent Handbook guidelines, girls and boys have uniform listed separately. From September, we are proposing that this will be replaced by two uniform options, but they will simply be named ‘Uniform Option 1’ and ‘Uniform Option 2’. The two lists will contain the same uniform items as they currently do. Children and families will then choose which of the two options is right for them. 
 
These changes will bring us in line with the other schools in the Foundation, as well as many other schools around the country who have adopted a similar approach. 
 
One possible outcome of this change is that girls will opt to wear trousers, rather than the skirt or pinafore. If they choose to do this only on some occasions, such as when there is a cold weather snap, that would be fine. 
 
If you have any questions or comments regarding this update to our uniform policy, please do not hesitate to contact me.
