Dear Parents/Carer

The PTA held a book fair in the school hall this morning. The children were allowed to come in and choose max of two books at 50p each. In each child’s books that they will bring home today there should be a little yellow post it note stating if they owe 50p or £1 depending on how many books they chose. We understand that this was done without prior consent which is why we kept it at a max cost of £1 in a hope that parents wouldn’t mind. However if you do have any issues regarding this please feel free to come and speak to Cheryl Collins or Rachel Smith in the school office.

Please can you bring in the money for the books in a sealed and named envelope. If you would prefer to return the book please also do so with a note to let us know.

***Important*** as this was a general book fair and not just children’s books we attempted to monitor all books purchased by the children especially years 5/6 who tended to go for the more adult looking books. We did ask most of them to swap for a more age related one however some may have slipped through the net so can we kindly ask that you double check the content of the books before letting your child read them.

Thank you again for supporting the PTA.

Can we just remind you that Sunset Club finishes at 5:30pm. We do realise that on the odd occasions you may be delayed, if this is the case please phone the club lead on 01939 290268 (the nursery phone number) to let them know.

It is one of our terms and conditions for the club that we can charge extra for a late pick up, this is because the school staff are only paid until 5:30pm and the cleaners have to lock up, if they are delayed, Shire Services can also charge us for the overtime. This obviously means that we could make a loss, which we cannot afford and would mean that we would have to increase the cost of the club for everyone.

Thank you for your support.

We would like to let you know that after advertising for a new assistant headteacher, we were overwhelmed by the amount of applications from a very strong field of candidates, many of whom were already in leadership posts. What made me proud was that each and every one who came to look around commented on the lovely atmosphere and the well-behaved and polite children.

We are very pleased to let you know that we have now successfully appointed Mr Paul Glover as our new assistant headteacher. Mr. Glover currently works at St. George’s Junior school in Shrewsbury where he has been deputy head, year group leader and SENco. Some of his favourite things in school are ICT, sport, singing and school productions. He is really looking forward to meeting everyone and hopes to come in during this half term to start to get to know you all.

We will now start to think about which teacher will be teaching each class next year and how the classes will grouped now that we have the final reception intake numbers. We will let you know in due course.

Transition day is Wednesday 10th July where the year 6s go to the Corbet for the day and all the children at Myddle will spend the day with their new teacher.
