Attendance: Well done to Chestnut Class (100%), Hazel Class (98.3%) and Beech Class (97.7%) who had the best attendance last week. Help your class to be one of the top 3 classes by coming to school every day (week ending 6/3). Just a reminder that it is your responsibility to advise school if your child is absent, or the absence will be unauthorised. You can now do this on the School Spider app. Remember to see if your class can beat the previous weeks attendance - you're all doing well so far. Keep it up.

School Dinners

Unfortunately, due to rising costs, Lancashire County Council have increased the price of school meal to £2.90 per day from after Easter. The new menus are now on the system ready for choices to be input for meals after Easter.

Easter

On Friday 27th March we will be holding our Easter Egg Raffle. Tickets will go on sale on 23rd March (20p per ticket/£1 per strip). In the past we have allowed the children to come in non-uniform (no football kits) for a day, as long as they bring a donation of a small Easter Egg. We will be doing this again this year. Please see the information below for the date relating to your child’s class.

EYFS & Oak class - 16th March

Rowan & Maple - 17th March

Hazel & Sycamore - 18th March

Beech & Birch - 19th March
