Bullies Paradise This company came into school on Monday afternoon and presented a drama piece to all the children in Years 2 to 5. It was a very good session and useful for all the children. All classes will follow this up with discussion and work in their classes.

Storybags– Help Needed We are looking for parents, grandparents and carers who can help with a literacy project we are involved in. Anyone who is willing to donate time to undertake tasks such as sewing, colouring, cutting or sorting and packing materials please let Mrs. Allen know as soon as possible.



Sainsbury's Vouchers Please continue to save these vouchers and bring them in to school to put towards P.E. equipment for our children. The offer runs out in June, so please send them in before then. Thank you.

Uniform At Glade we believe that school uniform encourages a sense of pride in the school and an appropriate attitude in the children’s mind for the daily work. It discourages peer pressure in regard to fashions and the emotional and financial implications that we wish to avoid. The uniform is as follows:
Regular Uniform and P.E.Uniform
Yellow polo shirt/white shirt
Green sweatshirt with logo/Green cardigan
Yellow/Green check dress
Black/Grey trousers
Grey skirt/pinafore/shorts
Black shoes/trainers
P.E. Uniform
Plain white T-shirt
Black/Navy shorts
Black/Navy leotard
Black/White plimsolls
Please note that jewellery is NOT a part of school uniform and only watches should be worn.
School Nurse—Clinic This is tomorrow. The school nurse, Lisa Blackmore will be available from 8.30-9.30am for any parent wishing to see her regarding any medical concerns relating to their child/children.
