Dear Parents and carers,

 

This week in school, we have been talking about what we can do to ensure that people have a sense of belonging. This is particularly relevant at the moment as we have had several new families join the school this week. I know you will join me in making sure they all feel welcome as part of our Clatford family.

 

I’ve had a brilliant time in Year 1 this morning, when I got to see all of their amazing snowdrop drawings and at the other end of the school, I got to see some Year 6 perspective drawings in the afternoon.

 

On Monday, the Junior Road Safety Officers led a school worship about safety on the roads and I know that lots of the children have been busy colouring in their pictures of cycling helmets for the associated colouring competition. 

 

On Tuesday morning next week, KS2 have a treat, as an author (Peter Murray) is coming to visit the school and will be spending some time with the children to share some expert writing tips. Peter Murray will then be available on Wednesday after school to sell and sign books, which start at £7.00. We would say the books are definitely aimed at KS2.

 

Please see the attached flyer from the PTA, with some exciting news from them and some dates to add to the diary.

 

I have also attached a flyer this week about internet safety and setting up parent controls on technology. Internet safety is something that every household does differently, but parental controls on devices, apps and consoles are definitely a big part of the toolkit we can use to keep children safe.

 

At school I get a daily report about the children’s internet use, which I check daily, and this tells me if any pupil in the school has attempted to access material that is blocked by our filtering system. If I find there is something troubling that your child has attempted to access, I would then give the parent/carer a call to let them know.

 

Wishing you all a restful weekend,

 

Yours sincerely,

Mr M Kirk
