South Bracknell Review

The Statutory Notices regarding the proposed amalgamation of the Junior and Infant Schools has been posted at the school entrance and published in the Bracknell News. One of our parents has set up a web page [http://homepage.ntlworld.com/angus.balfour4] for those of you who are interested.
If you have a younger child please remember to register for a place in Nursery and school so that our projected forecasts are as accurate as possible. Back to top

Medical Alert

I would just like to let you know that there is a case of Scarlet Fever in a Y1 class and German Measles in YR. As always, please remember to inform the school as soon as possible if your child is absent through illness. Back to top

Adventure Playground

Now that the better weather is here and the children are using the adventure playground it is important that they have a change of shoes in school at all times. The rota for using the playground is as follows:

Monday Miss Gailer's class Tuesday Miss Tyrrell's class
Wednesday Mrs Wood's class Thursday Miss Margrie's class
Friday Mrs Brooker's class


Please remember that the adventure playground is only for use of children during the school day. The children have been reminded not to use it before or after school and to let little brothers and sisters know the rules. Back to top

Y2 trip to Marwell Zoo

Advance warning!! We are planning a trip for Y2 children to visit Marwell Zoo on 11th May. This will cost £10 so we are letting you have plenty of notice. A letter to Y2 parents will be sent out next term. Back to top

Toilets

We are concerned about the condition of some of the toilets by the end of the school day. Please could you remind your children of proper use of the toilet ( i.e. boys to lift the seat, all to flush toilets and wash hands). Please be assured that all toilets are cleaned on a daily basis but unfortunately some children are not as careful in their use as others. Back to top

Healthy Schools

We are proud to have been awarded the Gold Keep on Smiling Nutrition Award, for encouraging the children to eat fresh fruit. Please note that although dried fruit is a good nutritious food and can be included at meal times, because it is very sweet and sticky it can damage teeth, so is not recommended as a snack between meals.

End of Term

We finish school for the Easter break on Friday 2nd April at 2.00pm. This will be a non-uniform day for 50p towards the playground fund. We will be back to school on Tuesday 20th April. Back to top
