Music Tuition

We are pleased to be able to offer a wide range of individual musical tuition in piano, guitar/bass guitar, drums (drum kit and hand drums), bassoon, flute, clarinet, saxophone, recorder and vocal. Lessons are £7.50 for 15 minutes. Application forms are available from the school office or from the Music Notice-board in the main corridor. If you have any questions please see Miss Bowden.


English Classes

There are FREE English classes running at Marylebone Library for any of our parents who would like to take advantage of this.

See Mrs Leith if you are interested and haven’t yet signed up. They start this week.


School Dates and Holidays

A list of school dates for this school year is attached to this newsletter.

A small card (credit card sized) was also given out today for you with the school’s contact details and holidays list. Please keep it in your purse or wallet. If you didn’t receive it, check your child’s book bag carefully. If you don’t have one there are a few spares in the school office.


Parent Questionnaire

Periodically we survey our parents to gather your views about the school. That might be, for example, specific questions about school meals, but now and again we ask for more general information about your views on the school.

A questionnaire is attached to this newsletter. Please complete it and hand it in to the office, or your child’s class teacher, anonymously. We’ll be collecting them until the end of this week. There’s a box on the counter at reception.

We need as many returned as possible in order to get a full picture, so please find 5 minutes to fill it in.
