Newsletter 29 – 28th April 2025Knowledge begins with respect for God (Proverbs 1:7)This half-term’s value is ‘Respect’’ (1 Peter 2:17)
Attendance
Last term your child brought home a sheet containing important information about their attendance since September.
If your child’s attendance was in the yellow, orange or red sections it is extremely important that you make improving your child’s attendance an absolute priority this term. This is particularly urgent if their attendance was in the red section. This is to make sure that your child makes the best possible progress in all areas of their learning and development.
School Uniform
We have noticed that some of the boys are sometimes wearing trainers and/or joggers to school. Our school uniform policy is that boys should wear proper school shoes and trousers to school. Please can you check that your son is wearing the correct school uniform every day. Thank you for your help in this.
Class Newsletters
Your child will be bringing home a class newsletter for the summer term with important information about homework, PE days etc. Please read this carefully. Class newsletters are also available on the class pages on our school website. |
Picking children up at the end of the school day
At the end of the last term we noticed that quite a number of children were being brought to the office at 3.10pm as they had not been collected by parents or carers at the correct time. Please make sure that you arrive at school ready to collect your child(ren) at 3.00pm.
Brunel Nursery School
We still have places in Brunel Nursery School for the Summer Term. If you have a child who has turned three and is not attending any type of nursery education, I would strongly encourage you to make the most of this opportunity. If you have any friends or neighbours with any three-year-old children, please mention this to them. There are not many nursery schools left in Blackburn and we are very fortunate to have this facility on our doorstep.
