9th December 2022

Dear parents/ carers,

Well it’s here! Today is the day of the PSA Christmas Bazaar, from 3.15pm – 6pm.  Thank you all so much for your donations over the last few weeks, we’re all looking forward to a fun afternoon and would love to see you there.

I’ll make this a quick newsletter today with updates next week on the fun activities going on around school in the lead up to the end of term.

Tuesday 20th December: Last day of the autumn term and Christmas celebration at St Mary’s Church, Henham – 9.15am start – if you could bring your children directly to the church on Tuesday morning from 8.45am, staff will meet you there to register the children.  Children that attend breakfast club will be walked up to the church separately by staff from school.   If you are unable to meet us at the church, please bring your child to school and they can join us in the walk up with the breakfast club group.  We will be leaving the school promptly at 9am.

A reminder that this will be for children from Reception Class to Year 6.  If your child is in nursery class and you would like to join us, you are more than welcome but your children will need to sit with you for the celebration.

All children and staff will be walking back to school after the service, if you are able, volunteers are very welcome to support the walk back.

My Headteachers awards this week have been presented today; congratulations to:

Nursery Class James
Reception Class Savannah & Chloe
Year 1 Sienna & Willow
Year 2 Seth & Dylan
Year 3 Thea & Thomas
Year 4 Olive & Bella
Year 5 Bobby & Harry M
Year 6 Dexter & Lewis

That’s it for this week, I look forward to sharing our festive activities next week.  Until then, hopefully I’ll see you at the bazaar this afternoon.

Best wishes,

Kim
