Dear Parents,
Welcome back! I hope you all had a wonderful Easter and the children enjoyed the break. They certainly seem refreshed and ready for the action-packed term in store for them.
In the first week back, we have already had a visit from Fantastic Fred, to support the children's emotional wellbeing. Last Friday the children loved the Easter Bonnet parade, showcasing entries to the Headteacher's Challenge and this week Trans G led a beautiful Liturgy that parents were at last, able to attend.
Early Years have enjoyed a Vaisakhi Celebration Day, Ark Farm and hosted a successful Parent-Toddler group for the local community.
Looking ahead to the rest of the term, we have so many exciting things planned: From school trips across the school including the Living Rainforest, National Gallery, Ufton Court, Brighton Beach, Matilda, Mary Poppins, Chessington and Legoland, to academic events such as the Spell It! Challenge, Baylab science trip, SATS for Upper Prep and Remove, UK Maths Trust and GCSE papers for some of our most enthusiastic mathematicians.
We are delighted to announce that for the first time we will be having three school productions in a single term! We cannot wait to share with you the children's talents. Remove (Yr 6) are taking part in a Berkshire Maestros performance at the Hexagon in Reading, and we are looking forward to our annual Elocution Challenge.
Our sports teams will be busy with summer term fixtures in cricket, rounders, and athletics, in addition to our two Sports Days, one of which will be at Thames Valley Athletics centre.
It is full speed ahead, and we are delighted that this term parents will be able to attend many of our events. We look forward to sharing a busy and brilliant term with you.
