A combination of logos for Comic Relief Red Nose Day & the charity Shelter

A super STEM week where children have continued to impress with their Science learning and have visited our STEM Fair – many thanks to Miss Rozier for organising this and a huge ‘well done’ to all children who completed projects at home. EYFS children took part in a road safety ‘Beep Beep’ day on Wednesday; Y4 have taken part in their Golf afternoon and it’s great to have support for both Red Nose Day (Link to Comic Relief Red Nose Day) and for Shelter (Link to charity Shelter website) with Miss Rudd’s Bake Sale – many thanks to everybody for supporting these deserving causes; 5 Ofili continue their swimming lessons and library visits, violin lessons and performing arts/PE lessons all continue.

Please see the attachments below which include our full newsletter, an updated diary date sheet, as well as information regarding local Easter activities.

Our Collective Worship theme this week has continued with our theme of ‘Friendships in the Bible’ with Paul, Timothy & Barnabas. Next week we’ll think about Dorcas as our theme of friendship continues.

Wishing you, our children, and our whole school community
a really lovely, restful and fun weekend.

God bless, from the St. James’ team.
