Asda Cashpot for Schools
Thank you so much to everyone who has signed up for the Asda Cashpot for Schools initiative. We have now raised over £130 for our school!
You can support our school by following the steps below on the Asda rewards app.
Every time you shop at Asda until the 30th of November and you scan the app, 0.5% of your bill will be donated to our school. This does not impact your individual cash pot savings or total bill. Our school will also get £1 each time a new person signs up! Please share with family and friends and support our school!
School Dinners
Please click this link to order school dinners for your child for next week, week beginning Monday 30th of September.
Please look at the form carefully and choose which dinner option for each day your child would like to order. Your child does not need to have a school dinner every day. Please fill out the form even if your child brings sandwiches from home everyday. You will need to order your child’s dinners by Friday. Ordered meals will be passed to the school kitchen every Monday morning.

Attendance Matters
The United Nation Article 28 states ‘every child has the right to have a primary education’. We are linking our attendance performance to this article.
We want our children to have the best possible education to give them the best chance in life. If your children aren’t in school we can’t give them this opportunity and can’t give them the opportunity to ‘be the best they can be.’
