Newsletter 31 - 19th May 2023
Dear Parents and Carers,
Year 5 Residential
Year 5 will be going on their residential stay to Leeson House in Dorset next week for 3 days and we look forward to hearing all about it when they return.
Class Photos
The school photographer will be coming to school on Monday morning to take whole class photos. If your child has PE on Mondays, please send them into school in their smart summer school uniform with their PE kit to change into.
Film Night
Tuesday 23rd May is the ever-popular PTA Film Night. Please pay via ParentPay. Pick up is 4.15pm from your child's classroom. If your child is not attending, pick up as usual at 3:15pm.
Break the Rules Day
PTA and School Council have arranged Break the Rules day next Friday 26th May. This is always a fantastic fundraiser for the school so we’re hoping the children will want to take part and break rules again this year! Look out for the form coming home for children to choose which rules they’d like to break. The children need to hand the forms and any monies to their class teacher on Break the Rules day.
Have a lovely weekend and enjoy the much needed sunshine 😊
Mrs Barnes

Year 2 Girls Visit the Marist School
Cara and Olivia went to the Marist School this week to sample a number of different sports and athletics activities. Here they are proudly showing off their medals.
Basketball Tournament
On Wednesday after school two teams from years 5 & 6 took part in a basketball tournament at Charters School against the other local primary schools. For some of the children, it was their first experience of competitive basketball. They all played really well and represented Holy Trinity superbly. One of the teams won two out of their three matches convincingly. Well done to everyone who took part: Theo, Oscar, Matthew, Kaja, Aleena, Ayden, Aidan, Luke, Jude, Charlie, James, Neive, Ben, Xander and Jack. Thank you to the parents who supported from the side-lines, cheering the teams on, and to Miss Harding and Mrs Rhodes for attending the tournament with the children.
Library Books Amnesty
Please could you have a good check whether you have any school library books at home and bring these back to school? Many thanks indeed.
Clothes - Please Name
Please take a moment to check that all uniform is clearly named this weekend. Jumpers, cardigans and PE hoodies are regularly abandoned around school and can be easily reunited via lockers if they are clearly named. If you have second hand uniform, please black out any previous names and apply a new label or name where possible. Every effort is made to ensure named uniform is returned to its' rightful owner.
Reporting Absence
Please report absence using the school absence line on 01344 620716 by 9.15am at the latest on each and every day of absence. Absence notified by email may not be seen until much later in the morning due to the very large volume of emails received at school. Many thanks for your help with this.
