Dear Parents

I hope you have enjoyed a productive week at work and at home, as we have done here at school.

We have focused this week on the theme of sun care, with the summer beckoning and warmer temperatures hopefully not too far away. The children have taken on board these messages really sensibly and I am grateful to Mrs Noyce and Mrs Webb in particular and the children in Year 6 for being so proactive in putting this message out to the children.

Each year in my Year 6 Geography classes we spend time learning locations of cities, countries, mountains, seas, rivers, oceans and so on in our Geography lessons. This culminates in the annual interhouse quiz which was an exciting affair this year with the children showing superb levels of knowledge and confidence. Well done to St Andrews house for their ultimate success and warm congratulations should also go to the other teams who took part.

There is much to look forward to next week with an assembly on the latest Bwengu fundraising as well as the celebration breakfast for the Year 6 children following their exam successes. The Year 5 Taster Day at Princethorpe College is always an enjoyable one for the children involved and I will go over there to meet them when they are picked up by parents at the end of the day.

Finally, of course, we have the Summer Fete planned for next Friday and I do hope you are able to come along at least for some of the time to support the event and enjoy the activities with your children.

Have a great weekend everyone.
