The Courier

This week we were delighted to welcome Ruby Small to join our Reception teaching team. Ruby is training to be an early years specialist at Warwickshire College and will be working with us for two days a week until the Christmas break. She hopes to be able to continue after this, depending on the other demands of her studies. Ruby will be an invaluable asset for hearing readers, working with groups and supporting the learning. 

Class 5F will be given a book to read over half-term. The book is called Goth Girl And The Ghost Of A Mouse by Chris Riddell, we have not yet started it in class but I would like it to be read over half-term.

Please feel free to share this book as a family, listen to it on an audiobook or discuss it with your child if they are reading it independently. It will need to be completed a week after we return to school as we will be doing some work on it on our return.

We are purchasing our fundraising Christmas cards from Xmas4schools. Your child should bring home an order card tonight, that has the ordering details on one side and the actual space where the design must be on the other.

Please fill in details and keep to the class name as RP, 1Q, 2E, 2W, 3LS, 3SS, 4C, 5F or 6W. Also, there is a price guide as to what products you will be able to buy when the design is complete. 

The design guidelines are: 

• Do not go too near the edge as the printer will cut it off - you must be 1cm away all around
• Do use felt tip, ink, pencil crayons, gel pens - brighter the better- pale does not show up
• Do use collage if you want - but well stuck down
• Do use glitter glue if you want
• Do not use sprinkle glitter- it falls off!
• Do not use large areas of metallic finishes - it will not look shiny
• Do cover up as much of the white space as you can
• Do make any text big as the process will reduce the size of the design

The design card with details, must be returned as soon as possible. The deadline is Wednesday 18 October 2023. We cannot accept or send any late orders.

FoC will receive a donation for every product ordered, so do get designing! Please note that this is not the Crescent School Christmas card competition, but items just for yourselves.

Season's Greetings!
