News from EBPS 15th March 2024
Dear parents and carers,
As we near the end of spring term, teachers have been updating their assessments of children and this week we held our Pupil Progress Review meetings between teachers, myself and Mr Morris to ensure every child will be supported to achieve their personal best. There will be lots more learning and “gap filling” in the summer term to ensure every child finishes this academic year achieving their potential. You will receive your child’s short report next Friday showing you their current attainment and progress.
Our wonderful School Council (and in particular the Chair, Sophie M in Y6) really impressed Councillor Laura Lawman who attended their meeting this week. Councillor Lawman was blown away by the professionalism with which our meetings are run and also by the phenomenal fundraising the children have led. Children enjoyed the assemblies this afternoon from the Air Ambulance, learning how their funds will be used.
Thanks again to our School Councillors for their work on improving playtimes. We are offering different games and activities on the playgrounds for children to participate in, as well as free play. We are trying to develop our Sports Crew to be even more involved and pro-active in leading these games.
Today’s assemblies celebrated lots of winners of stars of the week, housepoint awards, Numbots and TTRS. Our reading winners were Beech class and Snowdrops Harry I and Klara were the individual winners.
PTA Easter egg raffle
Our fabulous PTA are planning to run their annual ‘Easter Egg Raffle’. Please send any donations to your child’s class. Many supermarkets are selling eggs at under £1 each, so please consider sending in just a small egg as all the children love to win something at this raffle event. Thank you. Tickets, at 20p each, will be available from 21st March.
Easter holidays are fast approaching! As I have informed you before, we are unable to offer Easter holiday clubs here this holiday due to building works. However, please see attached the flier for the HAF clubs (now known as Oak holiday clubs) and the schools they are offering clubs at this time.
Have a lovely weekend.
Miss Lally
