Please bring a chair or rug with you, as spectators will be seated on the grass. The children will need to bring a drink of water in a named sports bottle, a sun hat and trainers/pumps that fit. They may bring sun cream in a named bottle to apply themselves if the weather is hot. We have pencilled in two other dates should the weather be poor, Tuesday 15th July at 9am and Wednesday 16th July at 9am.

Summer Disco
A reminder the Summer Disco is tomorrow, Friday 4th July from 4.30pm until 6.30pm. Tickets cost £2 and are sold in the Hall during morning break.
Collecting your child after the Disco
To save congestion, please collect your child from the exits indicated below. Please note the disco ends at 6.30pm and the doors will not be open until that time.
Reception, Year 1 & 2 – Main Entrance
Year 3 & 4 – New Delhi classroom
Year 5 & 6 - Ottawa Classroom
If you have more than one child to collect, please pick up your youngest first. Please take your child’s coat home with you after dropping them off at the disco as they easily get lost and are difficult to find with so many children in the hall. Please make sure that your child has an Asthma inhaler with them if they need one.
Thank you for your support.

The Cookery Club on Monday 7th July is cancelled. The next session will be on Monday 14th July.

Choir visit to Roberttown Nursing Home - Thursday 10th July

Library and Reading Books
A reminder we are collecting in all library books and reading books by tomorrow, Friday 4th July. If you have any at home please return them as soon as possible. Each year we lose a significant number of library and reading books. This causes difficulties as children may then have to share a guided reading book. It also costs school £500 approximately to replace lost books each year. Lost library and reading books will be charged at the full price. The children will still be reading in class as normal.
Breakfast Club
We are now taking bookings for Breakfast Club for next term. A booking form will be sent home with all children who attended this year. Forms are available from the school office.
Year 5 / 6 Concert ‘Treasure island’
The children in Year 5 & 6 will be performing their concert on Tuesday 15th July at 2pm and Wednesday 16th July at 7pm. Please return the attached slip if you would like to request tickets.

Year 6 Visit to Spen Valley Sports College – Wednesday 9th July
The children in Year 6 are visiting Spen Valley Sports College to watch a performance of ‘Bugsy Malone’ on Wednesday 9th July. We expect the children to be back in school during Celebration Collective Worship and will receive their half Term Superstar awards at the end of the assembly.
UNISON National Strike 16th and 17th July
You may be aware from press coverage that Unison has balloted its members for strike action. We have just received confirmation that the outcome of the national Ballot was in favour of strike action. We expect a National two day strike will go ahead on the 16th & 17th July 2008 and so I am alerting you to the possibility of disruption to classes on these days. It is not clear whether this could affect some classes in school or lead to the school closing. I am currently assessing the situation with senior colleagues, taking advice from the Local Authority particularly with regards to Health and Safety issues and will write to you again as soon as the position is clear.
Wednesday 16th July – Celebration Collective Worship starts at 2.30pm
The last Celebration Collective Worship for this academic year is on Wednesday 16th July and begins at an earlier time of 2.30pm.
