• Maths Week

  Mon 18 Nov 2019

  This week we will be celebrating all things maths in school as part of National Maths Week.

   

  The theme for the week will be ‘Marvellous Maths’ and we will aim to encourage a positive attitude towards maths, improve confidence and promote the value of maths as an essential life skill  – all things we believe in passionately. Our vision is for everyone to feel positive about maths – to feel that it is something they can do, and enjoy.

   

  For more details, including details of how parents can get involved, please see the letter in the Newsletter section. 

• Non Uniform Day - Friday 15th November

  Fri 08 Nov 2019

  Dear Parents and carers,

  Children in Need takes place next Friday (15^th November) and in an effort to ensure that the children can take part in the day itself we have taken the decision to bring forward the Non-uniform day for both Children in Need and the Christmas Fair chocolate tombola donations to Friday 15^th November. This will be a change to the originally advertised dates.

  On Friday 15^th November the children can come in their own clothes or dress up in the Children in Need theme of spots. We ask that the children then bring either an item of chocolate to donate to Stalyhill’s Christmas Fair chocolate tombola and/or a £1 donation for Children in Need.

  Many thanks

• Polling Day - Thursday 12th December 2019

  Tue 05 Nov 2019

  Re: Polling Day – Thursday 12^th December 2019

   

  As you will be aware the Government have now called a General Election for Thursday 12^th December. As our school is a polling station, there will be some disruption to our normal operations that day, however we are aiming to keep this disruption to an absolute minimum for both children and parents.

  We had planned to have our school Christmas dinner on Thursday 12^th, this will now be moved to Friday 13^th December and will be on the same day as our Save the Children Christmas Jumper day, providing a lovely festive atmosphere for the children that day.

  On the polling day itself, school will remain OPEN to all children but the hall will be locked and inaccessible to children and staff throughout the day. The polling will take place in the hall and the internal door locks will mean that no members of the general public or polling volunteers will have access to the main part of school.

  As the hall will be out of use, the children will receive a ‘picnic style’ packed lunch that day which they will eat in their classrooms. This has proved to be quite a successful compromise in the past and enables us to keep the school open on polling days.

  Parking around school may be busier than usual on the polling day and we ask that you park sensibly and with consideration for other drivers.

  If you use Wise Owl, the club will be running as normal however the children will be using a classroom as opposed to the hall that day. You will be asked to bring your child to the school’s main entrance where they will be collected by a member of the Wise Owl team.

  Many thanks
