What a wonderful week the children have had. Years 1 and 2 put on a fantastic performance of 'Lights, Camel, Action!'. Nursery and Reception told the story of Christmas beautifully in their Nursery Rhyme Nativity at St Marks.
Next week the children are looking forward to the Carol Concert, Talent Show, Panto, Parties and Christmas Dinner.

Attendance
Please look at your child's attendance this term. Remember by having 5% absence means your child has missed three and a half days off school. That equates approx. to 5 hours of maths. 5 hours of literacy and 4 hours of curriculum time. More than 5% will have a greater impact. Therefore try to ensure appointments are kept out of school hours, family events are in holidays and weekends and children don't miss school for minor ailments.
Dinners
As mentioned above next week Wednesday will be Friday's menu choice and we will enjoy a Christmas Dinner on our last day, Friday with crackers music and all the trimmings. Please ensure your child has enough credit on their account to pay for all meals to be taken or provide a packed lunch from home.
