Super Learning Week
What a fantastic week we had in school last week! From Rock Kidz to Relax Kids, Magic Ian to Mad Science, Kindness Matters to swimming, the children enjoyed a wide range of great experiences, things they will hopefully remember for a long time. My thanks again go to Mrs Martin for organising all these great experiences for the children.
Macmillan Coffee Morning
Following many years of fantastic support from you, Year 6 are again hosting this national event and holding a ‘Cake sale’ for all the children, in aid of Macmillan Cancer Support. Unfortunately, most of us know someone who has had to fight this terrible illness. Indeed, we lost two members of our own staff to cancer, Mrs Heyes and Mrs Solkar, a number of years ago.
Our Coffee Morning will be taking place this Thursday, 3rd October, in the morning. To help raise money for this important charity, we are asking children to bring in a donation of cakes (not biscuits). Year 6 will sell them to all the children and staff in the morning.
Please send all cakes in on Wednesday or Thursday morning. Thursday will be a non-uniform day – children are particularly encouraged to wear something green.
Cakes will be priced at 50p - £1. You might like to consider sending in £1 per child for this. Please do not send £5 or £10 notes as we will struggle to give change. Many thanks in advance for your support for this very worthy cause!
Thanks in advance!

School Teams
As most of you will know, we have four teams in school: Attenborough, Parks, Seacole and Yousafzai. Children from Year 1 upwards are put in a team and are able to earn their team points through excellent work or behaviour. At the end of each term the team with the most points earns a prize.
The children recently voted for the captains, vice-captains and sports captains for each of the teams – here are the results:
