      As I write this, the final preparations are being made for the Summer Fair this afternoon.  The PTFA have been working very hard behind the scenes to make this a fantastic, enjoyable event, with lots of fun activities, tasty food and terrific games to play to keep the whole family entertained.  A big thank you in advance to everyone who has volunteered to help – we can’t run these events without your support.

      What a wonderful week we have had here in school!  Following on from a successful Sports Day last week, Year 5 and 6 represented the school brilliantly at the Alton Cricket Festival this week.  A boys’ team participated on Tuesday and a girls’ team on Wednesday with both teams winning lots of their matches.  We are waiting to hear if they have made it through to the final being held in Southampton next week!  A big thank you goes to Mr Goddard and Mr Metters for taking the team to their matches, driving the minibus, cheering the team on and keeping them cool!

      What a brilliant first week back it has been, culminating in our fantastic Sports Day today.  Last night we received notification of an amber heat health alert from Hampshire County Council, which meant we had to make some changes to our regular schedule of events today.  To keep everyone safe we decided to limit the long distance run to two laps only and not hold the family runtastic at the end of the morning.  All the children had a fantastic time though and amazed us with their sportsmanship, determination and team spirit.  Congratulations go to Nightingale House who were crowned the champions for 2023!

      I can’t believe we are already at the end of the first half of the summer term and what an incredibly busy one it’s been!! We’ve had a huge range of educational visits, two residentials, SATs tests, coronation celebrations, sporting events and prayer week, as well as all of our usual learning and activities.  I have been so proud of all the children this half-term. They have worked hard in their lessons and have represented our school well when off site by upholding our rules and values at all times - well done children.

      It has been lovely to see the return of the sunshine at last this week and great to see all the children enjoying their playtimes outside, especially in the woods.  Please remember to send your child to school with a named water bottle containing non-flavoured water to keep them hydrated as the weather warms up.

      I hope you all enjoyed the long weekend to celebrate the King’s Coronation.  I have certainly enjoyed hearing about all the memories that were made by the children as they celebrated this moment in history.

      We have had an enjoyable day in school today, celebrating the coronation of King Charles III.  Everyone has looked fantastic in their red, white and blue clothing and we all enjoyed singing our special coronation songs in collective worship this morning.

      I hope you all had a good break over Easter and were able to recharge the batteries ready for the term ahead. We have an exciting term coming up with lots of events for the children to join in with, from coronation celebrations to residential visits.

      I want to say a big thank you to everyone for their kinds words and many hugs this week. It has been a great send off. A big thank you to you all for my Bentley painting and special teddy which will remind me of all of you. After much thought, I have decided that the amazing legacy gift donation of £875.29 will go towards a Mrs Pinchess Reading Cup award for ‘Great Reading’. The rest of the money should be spent on new furniture for the staff room…something I have not had the budget to do, but much needed for our super staff team.

      We have started today with an AMAZING celebration of creativity, with all the super homework the children brought in. This was part of our ‘Kindness week’ in having a break from the typical homework, (and giving teachers a week off marking and setting homework as a kindness to them!) but also to enjoy doing something different. A big thank you to you at home for supporting all our artists and craftspeople to make some brilliant pieces – they are wonderful!

      We suggest asking children to empty any special (ssh…Mother’s Day!) items from their book bags when they get home today. Thank you to the teachers for their Blue Peter-style inspirations and for helping create something handmade by your child, all done with a lot of LOVE.
