Dear Parents and Carers,
Well the end of the spring term has arrived. School life is always busy but this term has been even busier with sporting fixtures, trips, visitors and Easter Services. Thank you to all parents for the support you give to your children and to us staff. We are blessed to have such a supportive and involved community. Thank you!
After the Easter break, we return on Monday 17th April. Children are welcome to start wearing their summer uniform if they prefer (this is a choice). This is detailed here.
Year 3 and Year 4 will start their swimming lessons at St. George’s after Easter – we rate this aspect of the statutory national curriculum highly. This opportunity gives the children a wider experience of an essential life skill even if they already partake in swimming lessons outside of school - and they so love swimming with their friends!
We wish you all a lovely Easter break.
Mrs Griffith

Fencing Club
Mr Mudie who organises our Little Musketeers Fencing Club was kind enough to run sessions for classes 1-6 this week! Fencing Club starts again next term on Monday mornings at 7.45am from 24th April.
NSPCC Fundraiser
The NSPCC Fundraiser organised and run by the School Council raised £530. Thank you for your kind donations to a very worthy cause. Special thanks go to the parents who helped the year 5 & 6 School Councillors run the activities and to all the goalies who put themselves in the line of fire in the penalty shoot-out. It was a great afternoon, not dampened by the inclement weather. The children certainly lived our school vision of ‘Be Happy and Do Good’.
Netball Success
On Tuesday after school, our year 5 & 6 netball team took on the other cluster schools in a tournament at Charters. We finished joint third out of seven teams, winning three games, drawing two and losing one. The girls played incredibly well and scored plenty of goals. Well done to all of them and thank you the parents who came along to support us.
