James 1:5

Now if any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives to all generously and without criticizing, and it will be given to him.

Dear Parents and Carers,

Welcome Mrs Farray-Green

Our incoming Headteacher Mrs Farray-Green and I have been working closely over the past few weeks. It was good to see her on Monday as she joined me for interviews. We are appointing a new class teacher following our interviews for a Deputy Headteacher just before half term.

Deputy Headteacher

We received a huge amount of interest for the role of Deputy Headteacher. The panel shortlisted a very competitive group and after a rigorous 2-day process, Mrs Farray-Green alongside core Governors from the selection panel, invited Mrs Cordey to become our new Deputy Head. As you know, Mrs Cordey is our current SENCO and will now become the Deputy Head and new Inclusion Lead. She will be out of class which supports the school’s current leadership structure. Well done to Mrs Cordey! News about her replacement teacher will be shared as soon as possible.

Congratulations Mr Bowen and Miss Mitchell

We are delighted to announce the safe arrival of baby Bonnie who was born last week. The family are well and happy. Mr Bowen will be on paternity leave until 20th of June while Miss Mitchell will now be on her maternity leave until next academic year. I am sure you will all wish them the very best in these first few weeks together.

Goodbye

We say goodbye to Mrs Ross at the end of the year; she has been with us for many years and brought with her a wealth of skills and talent. She is looking into starting a new travel business – I have said that we will share her business details when she is ready! Thank you, Mrs Ross – you have been a real blessing to us all. We wish you all the very best in your new business!

Sports day – everyone is welcome

Sports Day will take place on Thursday 26th June, weather permitting. The children will take part in a series of events, in their school teams. The school gates will be open from 12.45pm and will promptly close at 1.00pm with the main events starting at 1.20pm within the school grounds. We aim to finish and calculate the afternoon’s winning team at 3pm, ready for the usual 3:15pm dismissal on the front playground.

A letter is attached with a detailed breakdown on the afternoon’s events. This information will guide you in preparing for the afternoon and direct you in the best possible way to follow your child’s movements during Sports Day. Good luck to St George’s, St Andrew’s, St David’s and St Patrick’s teams!
