This weekend many of Class 6W are taking the 11+, we wish them all the very best for it.
They are fully prepared for the assessment and for the upcoming independent school examinations. During their time at Crescent they have taken part in mocks and focused lessons so children don't face the unknown on the day and instead feel fully prepared and supported.
Kindles or other e-readers are allowed in school from Year 3 for the children to read from. It is important that reading is as accessible as possible for children and often books are cheaper online. The children really only need to be reading one book rather than having a school book and a home book, one book can do both jobs and will save on confusion for the child.
If you decide that your child can bring their Kindle or other e-reader in, then it is to be used for reading ONLY. There will be no internet access. If a child is found using it inappropriately then parents will be informed. The Kindle will be the child's responsibility and any breakages are not our responsibility.
Please be reassured there are more than enough books in school for your child to enjoy and there is no necessity for your child to have a Kindle or e-reader, it is just a different way to access books if you wish to.
All children attending sporting/active co-curricular clubs should wear their School PE kit only. Leotards may be worn for Yoga, Gymnastics and Street Dance. Taekwondo uniform can be worn for Mr Perk's clubs.
For those in clubs before school, we recommend school uniform to save time changing.
Thank you for you support with this.
It is that time of year again when we are thankful for all that we have and reflect on those who don't have enough. We have been supporting the important work of the Rugby Food Bank for a number of years and we continue to do so this year.
In Assembly on Tuesday the children will watch a video to understand the importance of their giving and what happens to their donations across our town.
From Monday 18 September, we are asking for our families to bring any donations into school, via the normal student entrance where they will be met by our Year 6 helpers. We will collect and store our donations until Friday 29 September when we will be arranging them to be collected by Rugby Food Bank.
The photo details the list of donations asked for specifically by the Food Bank - please note they do not require any pasta, baked beans, or cereals at this time.
Many thanks in advance for your continued support and generosity for this cause.
