Non-Uniform Day Don’t forget this is tomorrow— 12th February wearing red—for Valentines Day. A PAWS fund raising event, £1 donation please.
China Week This has been an exciting and eventful week for all the children. Each class has been involved in a project linked to one of the animals from the Chinese zodiac.
We have also experienced Tai Chi and Calligraphy lessons and tomorrow we invite all the parents to join us for the whole school exercise at 8.55am—weather permitting.
Beijing Link On Monday, Glade Primary took part in a link video conference with other schools in London, the UK and China. This event was opened by the Redbridge Mayor, Mayor Chan, who is the first Chinese Mayor in Britain. Our pupils demonstrated their Chinese exercise routine and participated in a question and answer session with other schools. This was both a technical and educational feat and one that we are very proud to be involved in.
Wider Opportunity Concert at Town Hall This evening at 7pm a group of our Year 5 pupils will be playing their guitars in a concert at the Town Hall in Ilford. They have already performed for the school and have demonstrated their talent and skill with the guitar in such a short period of time.
We thank their guitar teachers Rico and Victoria for all their hard work and are sorry to hear that this is Rico’s last week with us.
Sainsbury’s Active Kids These vouchers are starting from 17th February. Please collect them for us and bring in to school as they really do help in ensuring that we get extra P.E. equipment for our children.
Open Evening Reminder Don’t forget! Appointments are tonight for Reception, Years 1,2,3,4 and 6. Please try to be on time for your meetings so that the evening can run smoothly. Thank you.
Punctuality Due to a decline in pupil’s punctuality the Education Welfare Service will be commencing ’Late Gate’ patrols. Please make sure your child is in school and lined up for 8.55am.
Finally, may I wish you all a great half-term holiday. See you on the 22nd February when school resumes.
