Parents’ Evening – Thursday 21st November 2024
We would like to inform you of some important changes to the upcoming Parents’ Evening. This year, Parents’ Evening will begin earlier, starting at 2:00pm and finishing at 6:30pm.
What this means for you:
- All children will need to be collected from school at 2:00pm on the day of Parents’ Evening, Thursday 21st November 2024.
- If your child is enrolled in a club or attending the play centre, they can remain at school and be collected at the usual time.
We appreciate your understanding and cooperation with these adjustments. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact the school office. Bookings will be through the Arbor app as usual. We will let you know when you can book a time slot.
Eco Swap
Our popular Eco Swap returns on Friday 18th October. If you have items at home that you no longer want and you would like to swap them for something different and help keep unwanted things from becoming landfill, then the Eco Swap is for you. Please bring any items that you would like to swap to the main office during the week beginning 14th October. You will be given tokens that you can swap for items at the event. Items must be in good, clean condition. We look forward to seeing you there.
