Dear Parents and Carers,

As we officially enter into Autumn,  I take the opportunity to remind you to make sure your child has a coat and a change of shoes for the field every day.

School Photographs

A reminder that Monday 26^th is the day the school photographer will take your child’s photo – I’m sure they’ll all look super smart!  Please wear school uniform and bring PE kit to change in to if needed.

Bags 2 School

Once again on Tuesday 27^th we are asking for your bags of unwanted clothes. A great time to weed out the wardrobes and raise some funds for school at the same time. Please bring any bags into the school car park before 9am on Tuesday morning. Unfortunately we don't have room for storage beforehand. Thank you for all your contributions.

We hope you enjoy your weekend,

Mrs Griffith

Absence

Please do not book holidays or family days during term time.  Missing even one or two days of school can be detrimental to your child's learning as key information is missed. Friendships are also affected.  Holiday absences will show up as persistent absence which is checked by Ofsted when they visit and monitored closely each half term by the Education Welfare Officer at RBWM.  Please note that changes are under way which may require the issuing of fixed penalty notices for holiday taken during school term time.  

School Term Dates

Please see here for term dates:

Holy Trinity CE Primary School take safeguarding very seriously. If you have a concern, please do not hesitate to report to our designated staff;

Mrs J. Griffith, Mrs C Barnes, Miss S. Harding, Mrs F Fargher

Please do not send your child to school if they're unwell or with a high temperature controlled by paracetamol or ibuprofen.  Don't forget that your child must not return to school until at least 48 hours after the last episode of any gastric upset (vomiting or diarrhoea).
