Year 6 - SAT’s

Thank you to all our Year 6 parents who

attended our SAT’s meeting on Thursday,

31st January 2019, it was a great turnout!!

We will be taking orders for Revision Books

(packs) from next week. These packs will

cost £4.50 each. We will require full payment

before Friday, 8th February (noon) at the

school office. Orders submitted after this time

cannot be accepted.

Parking on Walton Road and Price Road.

We have some issues at school with parents parking in front of emergency access,

across dropped kerbs, over junctions and zigzags outside our school. Some of these

areas have yellow lines—please adhere to parking restrictions as inconsiderate parking can

cause inconvenience to neighbours and other road users.

The existing school entrance markings on Walton Road are ‘No Stopping Monday to Friday 8am

– 4pm’.

Due to inconsiderate parking across a junction a child was nearly knocked over. To ensure the

safety of our children we have spoken with West Midlands Police. The outcome of this is that

around the hours of 8.30am - 8.50am, 11.30am and 3.25pm vehicular activity will be monitored.

In December parents/staff/neighbours/members of the public have been asked to take

photographic evidence of any vehicle that is causing an obstruction or parked in a dangerous

manner. Any vehicle registration number (VRM) we receive will be recorded, published in the

school Newsletter and passed on to West Midlands Police where a Fixed Penalty Notice will be

issued.

The photographic evidence must show where and how the car was parked and show the vehicle

registration.

These actions are legal.

Nut Allergy

A child in Reception has a severe nut

allergy. Could we please ask that you

are more vigilant with the products

that you put in lunch boxes and

check they do not contain nuts.

Safeguarding our children

Please inform school when someone else is

collecting your child. We do not release

children to someone for which we are

unaware of or do not know. Anyone

collecting children must be over 16 years

old. You must provide us with a password,

and the person collecting your child must

give your chosen password to the member of

staff releasing your child.

Head lice

There have been cases of head lice in school.

Please check your child for these. Information

on how to deal with head lice can be found on

our website.

Reception to Year 6. Breakfast
