The Courier

Saturday 29 September 2018 - 2.00pm - 4.00pm

It is our big Platinum Anniversary celebration this Saturday. 

All parents, pupils, families, Old Crescentians, trustees and former staff are invited to join us at school between 2pm and 4pm on Saturday 29 September. 

The Bilton Silver Band will be performing from 2pm and our choir will be singing from 3pm in a marquee out on the sport's field. There are family games for you to enjoy on the field and there are refreshments for you to buy at at our Crescent 'Tea Room' situated in the hall. 

This is not an obligatory day (the children do not even have to wear school uniform), but we would love you all to come and help us celebrate Crescent School's anniversary.  We hope you and your family will enjoy looking at the displays that children and staff have put together on the Crescent past and present and finding out about the changes that have occurred over the past 70 years.

Children do need to be accompanied by an adult while they are here.

Parking will be available in the School Playground, at Bilton Bowls Club and at St Mark's Church, Bilton.

We look forward to welcoming you, and hope you enjoy the day.  It may even bring back memories of when you were at school yourself.

Thursday 4 October 2018 - 4.00pm

All Class VI parents are invited to an information session about the residential trip to Slapton Ley Centre. This will be an opportunity for you to find out what happens there, note the key dates and ask any questions. We will soon be asking for you to sign up for this trip, securing your child's place with a small deposit.

This will be held in the Class VI form room at 4.00pm on Thursday 4 October 2018. Your child is also welcome and there will be light refreshments served. It should last no more than 30 minutes.

Friday 5 October 2018 - 10.00am to 3.00pm

The Crescent School is opening its doors to prospective parents for an Open Day on Friday 5 October from 10.00am to 3.00pm.

This is an opportunity to look around the school and to meet staff and pupils on a normal working day. All are welcome, no need to book, so please do help us spread the word.

If you can't make the Open Day but would like to visit the school, please call our Registrar, Mrs Helen Morley, on 01788 523851 and come on a day to suit you, we welcome visitors on most days.

For more information visit www.crescentschool.co.uk or see the Admissions Newsletter here.

Monday 8 October - 4.00pm

The three day residential to Rock UK Frontier Centre has been booked for the last three days of Lent Term, 8-10 April 2019. There will be a brief drop in session on Monday 8 October for an overview of what can be expected from the trip and how it is organised. This will be held in VY classroom at 4.00pm and you may bring your child with you.

Many of the pupils have been before and some of the activities we have chosen are the same (don't worry King Swing is booked!).

If you are undecided please come and see us and ask any questions you may still have. Please note that there will be a kit list and details meeting much nearer the time. If you are already decided please respond to the Evolve email that should have reached you last week.
