• BREAKFAST CLUB - PRICE INCREASE

  Fri 17 May 2019
  The daily cost of our Rise and Shine Breakfast Club has been £1.25 since May 2015.
  As you will be aware, Sheffield schools are facing an uncertain future financially, and we are working hard to ensure that any budget cuts have as little impact on your child’s education as possible.
  To help support the increasing costs of running our Breakfast Club, and to bring the cost of our Breakfast Club in line with other schools in the city, the daily cost of our Breakfast Club will increase to £2.00 with effect from Wednesday 4th September.  Any profits made from this price increase will be used to further improve provision across the whole of school.   
  We hope you will agree that this still represents excellent value for money, and will continue to support us.
  If you are in receipt of income-related Free School Meals or you volunteer at our Drop-Off, your child will continue to attend Breakfast Club free of charge.  If you think you may be entitled to income-related Free School Meals, please speak to a member of the office team.  

• SUMMER SHOWCASES

  Fri 17 May 2019

  Each year group will be holding a showcase of their work, throughout the summer term. Showcases will now take place in classrooms, unless specified, between 2.30pm and 3.00pm. 

  Y1 to Y5, please come into school through the main reception, to sign in. Foundation parents and carers, please use the usual Foundation entrance.  The showcases will be a showcase of work, with the children talking about what they have learnt.  After the showcase there will be an informal meeting time, where parents and carers will be invited to stay and chat to a member of Senior Leadership Team if they wish.

  At the end of the showcase, parents and carers should leave school and wait in the usual place to collect their children.

• PIXL UNLOCK APP

  Fri 10 May 2019

  The PiXL Unlock app is a vocabulary app with a range of different games, available on both android and apple devices. It fits in really well with our own vocabulary immersion process (VIP), which the children do in their early morning work.  Pupils in Y1-Y5 will shortly be receiving their usernames and passwords to use this app so we would encourage you to download it at home and have a go.  There will also be opportunities in school for pupils to access it.

• RELATIONSHIP EDUCATION

  Fri 03 May 2019

  With regards to the publicised changes in relationship education, we would like to inform parents and carers that we will be in consultation with our Co-operative Trust schools, Ballifield and Brunswick, at the end of May. During this initial meeting, we will devise an action plan for the forthcoming year and develop many consultation opportunities for our parents and carers, before September 2020. 

  In the meantime, parents and carers may find this DfE published document useful, with regards to understanding the forthcoming changes in September 2020. The FAQ is also available in Arabic and Urdu, and can be found at the link below.
