We would like to thank all of the children for taking part in our black and white day in support of Shawbury United.  It was lovely to see so many children in assembly wearing their colours with pride.

We would like to wish all of our families a lovely relaxing half term.The children have worked extremely hard this half term and deserve a well earned break.

We look forward to seeing you on Monday 24th February.

The orthoptist will be coming into school on Monday 24th February and Monday 9th March to check the reception children’s vision.

School Car park – The school car park is for use by school staff, deliveries and disabled blue badge holders only.  We still have several parents using the car park for collection in the afternoon. This is causing issues for people with permission to use the car park and also making the car park very dangerous for both drivers and pedestrians.

Parking – When parking outside the school please be respectful of residents driveways and ensure junctions are clear. We have received another complaint from a neighbour that they have been blocked in their own driveway. The parking around the Glebelands entrance is also causing concern for parents and children as it is very difficult for them to see past the parked vehicles to check the road is clear before they cross.

If you are dropping off or collecting your child in your car, please park at the village hall/field car parks and walk to school along the path.

Thank you for your support.

Over the last few days we have had a few parents reporting that their child has head lice.

Please can you check your child’s hair over the half term and treat if necessary.  Open the link below to read the NHS’s advice regarding head lice and the best treatment methods.

Just a quick reminder that your child’s sQuid account must be in credit if they wish to order a school lunch.  If there is no credit on the account you will be asked to provide a packed lunch for them.

There are still a few accounts in arrears at the minute.  Please clear these accounts as soon as possible.  If you would like to discuss a payment plan to clear any outstanding amount then please speak to the school office.

Thanks
