Dear Parents/Carers, 
Clubs
The majority of clubs start today. Children are to be collected from the playground at 4.15pm.
Once the nights get darker, we will change this so that the children are collected inside. We will let 
you know when we make this change.
WEAR YELLOW ON FRIDAY - reminder
The School Council would like staff and children to wear YELLOW to school on Friday 10th October 
to raise awareness of how to maintain positive mental health. 
The key message is that ‘we stand brighter, together’.
During the day children will think about ways they can look after their mental health and keep a 
healthy mind and healthy body.
We are asking the children to bring a donation of £1 or £2. This will help contribute to the cost of 
Rock Kidz coming into school. This was lots of fun last year and always has a powerful message for 
our children. This year they are focusing on an anti-bullying message.
Road Safety
There have been some incidents recently where drivers are mounting the pavement to park. This 
puts our children at risk.
There was an incident yesterday when a car backed onto the pavement to turn around. The driver 
did not look in the mirrors or check whether there was anyone behind the car. There was a child 
walking on the pavement and his mum had to grab him out of the path of the car.
I urge you all to speak to your drivers to stop them from using driving or parking on the pavement 
at any time around school.
We will continue to photograph cars that are parked illegally and send these to the police because 
we need our children to be safe.
Thank you for your support, 
Mrs Sarah Bell, 
Headteacher
