• School Milk - Summer Term

  Fri 28 Feb 2020

  The cost of milk for the summer term is £12.16. If you would like your child to have milk after the Easter holiday, you will need to make an online payment through sQuid, no later than Monday 23rd March 2020.

  If you haven’t already set up your child’s sQuid account, please speak to a member of staff in the office.

  No late orders will be processed. We will take the payment for milk as the authority to order your child's milk for the summer term. 

  Children who qualify for income based free school meals are entitled to free milk, and this will be ordered automatically. 

  If your child is in Foundation, and is now 5 years of age and you do not qualify for income based free school meals, you will need to make the above payment.

  Parent/Carers’ Evenings – Foundation to Y5

  On Wednesday 11th and Thursday 12th March, we will be holding our spring parent/carers’ evenings for children in Foundation to Y5. Letters have been sent home this week, with a reply slip you will need to return, in order for your child’s class teacher to make you an appointment. Please note also taking place will be:

  • Scholastic Book Fair in the KS2 dining room, available on both evenings. You will be able to access the book fair via the main reception area, from 4.30pm on Wednesday 11th March and 3.30pm on Thursday 12th March. Payments will only be taken in cash. Children will also be able to visit with their class, during the week.
  • Our Y1 and Y2 Art Exhibition will also be available to view in the KS2 hall, on both evenings.
  • Alicia Pollard, our Safeguarding Liaison Officer, will be available on the Thursday evening to informally discuss any pastoral concerns you may have regarding your child.
  • Some of our governors will also be available too for an informal chat.

• Outdoor Map Competition

  Thu 13 Feb 2020

  Currently, we are in the process of creating a new outdoor map for the KS2 playground. The map of Handsworth will be surrounded by six postcards that will feature photographs of the local area. 

  This is where we need your help! Which parts of our local area should be included? We would like you to take photos of landmarks that you think should appear alongside our map. These places could be important because of the way the land is used (residential, commercial, recreational), their historic value or their natural beauty - it's up to you!

  Your photos should be emailed to sdalton@athelstan.sheffield.sch.uk by Friday 28th February and the best six will feature on our outdoor map.
