Budding Musicians Calling all children who are musicians—Grade 2 and above and playing any instrument. You are invited to a ’Come and Play Session’ at Bancroft's School on July 2nd. If your child would like to be involved in this, please leave details of his/her name, class, instruments played and grades with the school office for the attention of Miss Boak, Nursery Teacher. Further details will follow.
Dropping off children to school in mornings I have noticed that more and more parents seem to think it is ok to drop their children off to school in the mornings by simply letting them out of the car in the middle of the road and allowing them to come in to school on their own. The roads outside of school are extremely busy at this time and this is a very dangerous thing to do. Please make sure that you bring your children into the school playground safely.
Yoga Classes These will start at 1.30pm from next week and will cost £1.50 because of the extra half hour.
Family Literacy We already have a sufficient number of parents attending this programme, and are unable to accommodate any more. We hope to run the programme again next year.
Swine Flu Whilst we are all listening to the daily updates, I would urge parents to be cautious, but not overly concerned. Remember, basic hygiene and prompt action will ensure that the virus is contained. Please read the accompanying letter and check the school website for regular updates on this matter.
Year 5 parents We have arranged for you to come on May 13th 3.45pm and view the DVD that we will be using for the children’s Sex and Relationships programme. We will organise care of the children to enable you to attend.
PAWS Non-Uniform Day Please send in £1 as a donation for those participating on May 15th.
