Thank you. Water Bottles! There continues to be a large number of children who are not regularly bringing in a water bottle from home. Please ensure that your child has a water bottle with them every day to ensure they are able to access a drink at any time they need it. If they do not have a water bottle, children have to leave the classroom to get water which can disrupt both their learning and the learning of their classmates. Thank you for your support. Golden Boot Challenge It is that time of year again when we take part in the Golden Boot Challenge, the biggest school travel competition in the country! The annual Golden Boot Challenge is designed to encourage children, parents and schools to choose sustainable alternatives to the car on school journeys. The challenge will run throughout June and teachers will be asking children how they travelled to school and logging it on the Surrey Healthy Schools website. We do appreciate that for some parents it is impossible to walk to school from home; however, we would suggest that when possible parents try to ‘park and stride’, i.e. to park further away from school and walk the rest of the distance. Thank you for your support. Dinner Money Please look out for dinner money invoices which will be sent home next week. All up to date information regarding dinner money payments and amounts owed is also available on the online payment system, Tucasi. Outstanding Payments for School Trips A gentle reminder for parents to check all school trip payments for their child are up to date. If you have any concerns, please do not hesitate to speak to a member of staff in the school office. Thank you.
