Dear Parent/Carer,
Book Day (Non-Uniform)
Remember, we are holding a themed Book Day on Monday 14 February. This is a non-uniformed day on which children are encouraged to come to school dressed as their favourite story character and bring in their favourite book to share with their teachers and friends. We will begin the day with an assembly during which teachers will be sharing their favourite books with the children. My thanks to Miss Hinton for her leadership of this event.
Clubs News
I am delighted that we will be offering a further Club starting on Thursday 3rd March. This is the French Club which will be run by Mrs Charlesworth. We are currently able to offer an incredible fifteen clubs, accessed by over two thirds of children at Robin Hood. These clubs are, for the most part, run by our staff – all of whom are freely giving of their time to add value to our children’s school experience. This is further evidence of the outstanding people who are making outstanding contributions at Robin Hood. Our Art Club, run by Mrs Steel and Mrs Chin will also be moving to a new Thursday evening slot after the Half Term.
Local History
Mrs Steel, our History Leader, would like to hear from anybody who has old photographs of themselves, school friends, family and neighbours, roads or buildings in the local area that we add to our online community archive. This archive provides a very important resource for our Local History studies in school. Mrs Steel is also keen to record oral histories about the local area/changes from local residents that could be added to this rich learning resource for pupils and the community. Anybody who is able to make a contribution… please contact Mrs Steel at the school.
Friendly Faces
Spaces remain available at Friendly Faces for the Half Term holiday, Monday to Thursday. We are offering half day as well as full day childcare… either morning or afternoon. Fancy a morning’s shopping in peace and quiet… drop the kids off at Friendly Faces and collect them after lunch! Half day places are available at £12.50… Much cheaper than the cost of keeping bored kids entertained at the shops! Anyone wishing to book Childcare at Friendly Faces during Half Term please contact Louise Parker. Please Note: Friendly Faces will be closed on the Friday of the Half Term.
PTA
Valentines Roses will be on sale outside school on Monday morning, priced £1.00. Our PTA Valentines Disco takes place in school on Monday evening, February 14th.
Have a super weekend,
Mr Wilson
