Christmas Running Challenge with medal

Shropshire Shufflers running club and Lingen Davies Cancer Fund have offered Bascurch and Myddle Primary Schools the chance to take part in their 12k of Christmas charity challenge this term. We have accepted the challenge because so many of the children loved taking part in the schools half marathon, and it is good to have a similar challenge at a different time of year – and also to raise money for a brilliant local cause.

The challenge is to commit to run, walk or jog 1k a day for 12 days whilst helping us to raise money for Lingen Davies Cancer Fund.

No sponsorship is required; simply pay the discounted school entry fee of £4 and  in return , you will receive a special Santa Snowflake medal to reward your hard work.

Lingen Davies has been funding projects to improve cancer services our Shropshire, Telford and Mid Wales for over 40 years. This is the fourth year that the Shufflers have organised their Christmas charity challenge and this year there will be at least four Shropshire primary schools taking part.

We will be hosting our 1k walks and runs at school during our golden mile sessions, break/lunchtimes. If your child wants to do more than 1k per day, that’s fine but we will still need to complete 12 separate runs for the challenge.

The entry price is £4 per child. We are keen to see as many children from the school take part, but we have only been allocated a limited number of places so these will be offered on a first come, first served basis.

Please log on and pay via School Gateway to secure your medal. It will be called ’12 Kilometres of Christmas Deadline is October half term as we will be beginning the challenge after that.

IMPORTANT CHANGE TO SUNRISE/SUNSET CLUBS

Due to a change of circumstance within school, we are unable to accept any new children who are 2 years old and under to both Sunrise and Sunset Clubs.

Any children who currently attend these clubs, in the above age bracket, will no longer be able to attend from Christmas 2019 until they reach their third birthday.

It has been a very difficult decision to make and please accept our apologises for the inconvenience that this may cause you and your family.

If you would like to discuss this further please do not hesitate to contact school on 01939 290834

Sale of the “Thumper Tower”

As you will be aware the “Thumper Tower” has been out of action for sometime now,  this is due to the volume of injuries to our pupils on this apparatus and it showing signs of wear and tear. The decision has been made to remove it.

We are also conscious that the rest of the play equipment is looking a tired and other parts also not suitable for the children to play on. With this in mind, the thumper tower has been placed on EBAY to sell and any funds raised from the sale will be used to improve/mend the rest of the play equipment. This sale is being dealt with independently but if you would be interested in making a bid please do not hesitate to have a look. The item reference number is 273993770081.

If you have any questions regarding the sale item please contact the seller directly.

Regards

Mrs Smith

Welcome Back

We have had a brilliant first day back. A warm welcome to all our new reception starters and to the new families that have joined us throughout the school. We are also joined by two Associate Teachers from the University of Chester, who will be with us throughout the year.

You will receive a class newsletter at the end of this week outlining the routines and the topics they will be covering this term. It will also be on the class page of the school website. Don’t forget to sign up for the email newsletter and to change you preferences for class news if your child is in a new class this year. You can do this from the bottom of the school website homepage. You should have received an email link and reminder to do this already if you are an existing user.

If you have any questions, however small they may seem, come to the front office in the first instance or catch the class teacher at the end of the day when they dismiss the children.

We look forward to a happy and successful term ahead.
