Sunset Club Bookings

Due to the popularity of Sunset club, it is very important that you book a place for your children. On some days, especially Wednesdays, we have reached full capacity. If we know in advance we can make sure we have additional staff on popular days. 3 year-olds MUST pre-book as this changes our staff ratios. Thank you for your understanding with this. Please see Rachel in the office for further information.

Nursery timings and safeguarding

We have had a couple of questions from parents about the nursery. Myself, Jodie, sunrise staff and the school admin have met to discuss this. In this instance, we don’t need to change any of our procedures, but we feel that a reminder to clarify the timings and our rationale would be helpful to keep things running smoothly.

Nursery opens at 8:55am. Jodie and Fran will open the blinds and the door at this time. Nursery children from sunrise will also be taken over from the main school. Nursery can only be open for a set amount of time each week, so if we open any earlier, we would have to finish earlier.

Siblings in the main school – The main school gate opens at 8:45 but if you have a child coming to nursery as well, it is ok to bring them all at 8:55 to save waiting in the elements for 10 mins on cold or rainy days. We are sorry but we cannot allow parents to wait in the nursery entrance or in the main school for safeguarding reasons. Any parents on site need to be signed in and this would not be feasible.

Toilets – due to the age of the children, it is inevitable that occasionally a little one will need to access a toilet quickly. Staff cannot let you into the main nursery before 8:55, but you will be able to use the staff toilet if it is an emergency. Please try to ensure your children have been before you set off for school to reduce the need for this as much as possible.

If you are let into the staff toilet in the nursery entrance, please do not hold the door open or let any other parents into this waiting area. This rule applies to all times of the day for both school and nursery and we appreciate your co-operation with this. We have to know who is on site to keep the children safe, and to keep you safe and accounted for should there be a fire.

Thank-you very much for your support.

Year 3 & 4 Gymnastics Competition

Today, 5 girls from Rhino class took part in a gymnastics competition at Baschurch. As part of the team, each had to perform a floor routine and two vaults.

The girls performed brilliantly, as individuals and as a team, and out of the five school competing, they finished in first place.

This was a fantastic achievement and we are extremely proud of the girls.

Well done to: Ariana, Lilly, Maisie, Amelia and Isabella.

HELP needed – Myddle Multi Terrain Fun Run

Myddle Multi Terrain 10K, 5K and 1 Mile Fun Run
Sunday 29th March 2020
WE NEED YOU!

This is a HUGE fundraiser for our school and nursery, last year we raised £2230.75 and had 237 runners!

This event has steadily grown in popularity over the years and is well regarded as a ‘good one’ amongst local running groups.

We need over 30-40 volunteers to make this event work, ranging from medical cover (First Aid at Work or higher!), marshalling, set up, registration and helping out with the teas. We also ask for homemade cake donations as this is popular with spectators and the runners love it after their run!  If you are interested in helping us please speak to the organisers Cathy Cooke, Becky Sparks or Helen Price, Rachel on reception or a member of the PTA.

We also have some sponsorship opportunities for local businesses, so if you are able to support us in any way please get in touch with Cathy, Becky or Helen! Sponsorship money goes towards medals, prizes, marketing and additional race-related equipment that we can use year on year.  Sponsorship also means that EVERY PENNY raised goes directly to our children for vital teaching and development resources.

Worship Council

Today, the Worship Council delivered their first assembly to the rest of the school.

In line with the value of this half term, truth, the children shared experiences from their training day, demonstrated some of the practical activities they took part in and shared the newly created Federation Prayer.

The assembly was a real success and we were all really proud of the pupils and how hard they have worked together. It isn’t easy to stand in front of the whole school, but all members of the worship council spoke with confidence. Well done.
