March 1st 2010 - Newsletter

 

World Book Day

It’s World Book Day on Thursday and to mark this we are taking a ‘healthy eating’ theme. We’ll be using this as an opportunity for all the children to do some cooking in school either this week or next and we will be reinforcing all of our ‘healthy eating’ messages. An author, Charlie Duncan, will be in school to talk to some of the older children as well as lead some fun activities in the afternoon.

 On Thursday we are suggesting that the children could come to school dressed as chefs/cooks: a chef’s hat and an apron, perhaps, or something a bit more elaborate if you prefer! On the back of this newsletter are instructions for making a chef’s hat! We are not asking for any donations on this day. Hopefully it will be a bit of fun as well as reminding us of a serious message.

If your child brings a packed lunch, perhaps you could talk about what goes into it and be especially ‘health conscious’ this week. If your child has a school lunch, perhaps you could talk to them about their choices at lunch time and encourage them to choose a balanced meal. 


Correction

I said last week that our parents and governors evening was on Thursday, 16th March - it’s actually TUESDAY, 16th March.  


Secondary Schools

Our thoughts are with the children in Year 6 and their families this week. The secondary school offers are sent out by Westminster Council today and should be with families from tomorrow.
