Dear Families,

 

Dougie Mac Coffee& Cake morning
Thank you so much for all of your donations for today.  It was lovely to see so many people join us.  I can’t believe how many delicious home made cakes were brought in - shame I couldn’t get to test them all!

Sam from Dougie Mac is coming in on Monday to collect the donation tubs and she’ll be back again on Monday 6th October to lead an assembly and share how much we raised.

Thank you again everyone.

 

School times
Just a reminder that children in nursery and Reception classes must be in the class at 8:45 so that they are not marked late in the registers.

Children in KS1 and KS2 must be in the class for 8:50am so that they are not marked late in the registers. 

The doors and gates are closed at 8:50am.  If you arrive after 8:50am, you must go to the main entrance with your child and sign them in.  Please do not leave your child to come to the main entrance by themselves.

 

Driving safety
I have been made aware that some children are not wearing seat belts in cars and that some of these children are standing in between the two front seats of the car. 

Not only is this very dangerous but it is also illegal.  Please can you ensure that your child is safely fastened into their car seat / seat belt before your drive.  If a person;s name is reported to me, I will have to take further action.

 

Useful information regarding online spending (from the E-safety advisor)

For Parents - Managing In-Game Spending

In-game spending can be problematic with some children and young people. The urgency to level up, to look unique, to be better than your friends, and to top all this off the persuasive techniques that games companies use.
Internet Matters have an excellent guide for parents which includes:

• How do children spend money while gaming.

• How does in-game currency work.

• The benefits and risks

• Supporting resources, and more.

You can view the guide HERE.

 

Thank you for your support.

Have a lovely weekend.

Mrs Wilmer
