Dear Parents,
It was so lovely to see so many of you at parent consultations this week finding out about how your child/children are doing at school.  I always think what a special time it is to share with your child their learning and see how far they have come.  This year was even more special as we were able to welcome you back ‘in person’.
 
We have had such a busy half term and I’ve been so proud of how the children have matured already this term.  Our new children in Maple class have settled in so well and it is fantastic to see them going about their learning within the classroom.
 
We have our Harvest Assembly on Friday when we will get to say ‘Thank you’ for all of the gifts we have been given.  We also have a collection of food which we will distribute to Kenilworth Food Bank. 
 
I look forward to seeing you at our Harvest Assembly and I hope you have a lovely half term.
