Unfortunately due to forecast high winds the trip to the Rising Sun today has been postponed until the 24th of September. The site manager contacted us to explain that both the den building and cooking on a fire would have to be cancelled, as this was the main focus of the trip we made the decision to change the date.
We have planned a fun day for your child at school including: cave art, watching the Croods, an indoor picnic and Stone Age weapon building. Thank you for your understanding that safety in this instance must come first. Please be reassured all children are having a fun filled day and are not too disappointed.
Thanks for your understanding- please do send any further payments into school as soon as possible.

PE
Children will have 2 P.E sessions per week. Children will be required to come into school in their PE kit on their P.E days. P.E kit should be black or blue non branded tracksuit, shorts in warmer weather, and a white t-shirt. Please note that outdoor P.E will take place in most weather conditions so appropriate clothing will be required in the colder months. A reminder that earrings are not part of the school uniform and if worn, children will not be able to take part in PE.
