Newsletter 31 - 6th May 2022
Dear Parents and Carers,
Thank you to all who joined us for Film Night this week – we hope the children enjoyed it!
Y6 SATs
Year 6 have been busily preparing for taking their end of KS2 SATs assessments. These are national tests that all Year 6 pupils will take next week. We commend them for their diligent work in their revision but know they have been ably prepared by the Year 6 teaching team to meet these challenges head on and do themselves proud. Good Luck Year 6!
Asthma Coffee Morning
On Friday 20th May 9 – 10am we are hosting a coffee morning in our hall for parents to come along and discuss any asthma related queries with the asthma nurse. Please do feel free to join us.
Designated Safeguarding Leads
Just a reminder to come to the office and make an appointment to speak to one of our safeguarding leads (Mrs Griffith, Mrs Barnes, Miss Harding and Mrs Fargher) if you have any safeguarding concerns you’d like to share.
Have a lovely weekend in the sunshine,
Mrs Griffith

PTA News
Thank you all for supporting our Film Night with a great turn out 🎥. We hope the children enjoyed the chosen films.
PTA Committee
We are still in need of parents to step forward for the roles of Chair and Treasurer for the next academic year.
We are also looking for parents to join the Committee and take on roles such as organising Bags2School, 2nd Hand Uniform etc.
If these roles are not filled, the PTA will have no choice but to fold and there will be no further fundraising or PTA events for the children.
If you are interested in joining the PTA Committee and would like to discuss what is involved, please contact htpta@outlook.com, and they will be happy to meet with you to discuss the roles further.
Summer Fair
The Summer Fair is being held on Saturday 25th June 11am-2pm – no virtual fair this year!! Please put it in your diaries and come along for a fun day and support the PTA in raising funds for an all weather running track.
If there are any parents who would like a stall selling their goods at the Fair, please contact htpta@outlook.com
We have had some parent helpers put themselves forward to assist with the gathering of auction prizes for our Summer Fair, but to complete the team we require a few extra helpers. If you are able to offer some time to help with this, PLEASE message Alison Shukla or Carol Brown on Classlist or htpta@outlook.com.
