9^th January 2026

 

Dear Parents and Carers,

I hope you all had a joyful and restful Christmas break. As we step into 2026, I want to thank you for your continued support of our school community. This year holds so much promise, and I’m excited for all that lies ahead.

 

Healthy Snacks Reminder

As part of our commitment to healthy lifestyles, we kindly ask that children bring a healthy snack for playtime. Ideally, this should be fruit, vegetables, or another nutritious option. Please avoid snacks such as chocolate bars and crisps. Thank you for helping us promote healthy habits.

 

Looking Ahead – Key Dates

We have added new dates to our calendar, including Sports Day and Parents’ Evenings, so please check the list at the end of this letter carefully. We’ll continue to keep you updated as the term progresses.

 

Thank You and Best Wishes

Thank you for everything you do to support Clatford Primary. Let’s make 2026 a year full of learning, laughter, and kindness.

 

We look forward to seeing you all as the term progresses.

Mr Kirk
