Dudley Performing Arts Music Lessons

The last day to enrol for lessons in school with Dudley Performing Arts for the Autumn term is Monday 20th October, for lessons to start after October half term.

After this, enrolments will close for Autumn.  They will then re-open for lessons to start in the Spring term, January 2026.

After School Clubs

There will be no Key Stage 2 Choir next week (Monday 20th October) due to staff on Year 6 residential or first week after half term (Monday 3rd November) as that is an INSET day. Choir will resume on Monday 10th November.

There will be no Year 6 football or Year 5/6 Tag Rugby next week as Mr Bradley is away on Year 6 residential.

Flu Vaccinations

The vaccination team will be in school again on Thursday 20th November for a catch-up session for anyone who was absent or missed their vaccination this week.

Poppies

There will also be a few other items available to buy as follows:

Toggle Bracelet £1

Reflector £1

Harvest 2025

Dear Parents and Carers,

The time for our annual harvest festival is fast approaching. We will be visiting Church where our Worship Leaders will lead our services. Key Stage 1 children will visit Church at 9:30am, with Key Stage 2 children following on at 10:00am.

Our School Council have again chosen to support the Black Country Food Bank.

Black Country Foodbank helps vulnerable individuals and families in crisis through the provision of 3 days emergency food supplies while a longer-term solution is developed. The services they provide have an enormous impact on the people who use them, giving them an important breathing space at a time of great need.

Items donated will be packaged up and collected by the Foodbank service directly. Out of date items, or items containing alcohol, cannot be accepted. The Black Country Foodbank website lists items that are needed particularly at the moment. A copy of the current shortages is attached to the bottom of this letter. Items can be brought into school from Monday 13th October. Our donations will be collected on the Monday 20th October, so please, no more donations after this date.

 

As always, we thank you in advance for sharing donations with our chosen harvest festival charity.
