Headteacher's Newsletter

Friday 5^th June 2026

Dear Parents and Carers,

What a wonderful and successful first week back it has been! It has been a pleasure to welcome the children back after the half-term break and to see them return with such enthusiasm, positivity and a real readiness to learn. The classrooms have been full of energy, curiosity and determination as the children have quickly settled back into their routines and begun working hard to make the final part of this academic year a successful one.

This half term is always one of our busiest, with many exciting events, learning opportunities and celebrations ahead. From educational visits and sporting events to our Summer Fair and end-of-year activities, there is certainly a great deal for us to look forward to as a school community. We are excited to share these experiences together and to create many happy memories before the summer break.

In this Sunday's Gospel (John 6:51-58), Jesus reminds us that He is the Bread of Life and that He nourishes us through the Eucharist. Just as food gives us the strength we need each day, Jesus provides us with the spiritual strength to live lives filled with love, kindness and service to others. As we begin this busy half term, we are reminded that when we stay close to Jesus, He gives us the courage, resilience and wisdom we need to face challenges and make the most of every opportunity.

May we continue to support one another, grow together in faith and learning, and make this final half term one filled with joy, achievement and gratitude.

Mufti Day – Friday 12th June

To help us prepare for our Summer Fair, we will be holding a Mufti Day on Friday 12th June.

Children are invited to come to school wearing their own clothes in exchange for a £2 donation, or whatever families are able to contribute. All money raised will go towards purchasing resources and materials for our Summer Fair, which will take place on Friday 26th June 2026 after school. The Summer Fair is always a wonderful community event and an important fundraiser for our school. We are grateful for your support in helping us make this year's fair a success.

Thank you for your continued generosity and support. We look forward to seeing the children in their mufti clothes on Friday 12th June and welcoming everyone to the Summer Fair on Friday 26th June.
