Welcome to Week 11 Monday memo

Thank-you to everyone who came to learning conferences this term. It was great to meet

job of leading and reflecting on their progress.

Uniform Term 2
·      Winter Uniform is to be worn for Term 2 – this refers to the formal uniform which is grey trousers and long sleeve shirt for boys and the pinafore and white blouse for girls (in Yr 2-6) with green jumper.   Sports uniform can consist of shorts or trackpants with sport t-shirt / ruby top
·      There is a 2 week changeover at the start of the term - so if the weather is unseasonably warm summer uniform can be worn (but not a mix of both).  
·      Hats do not need to be worn in term 2 (as the UV rating is usually below 3)
·      Please ensure your child's name is clearly marked on their hat and jumper,   use the holiday time to check this
