KS2 SATS

The dates for the KS2 SATS is Monday 11th May until Friday 15th May. It is

important that children taking these exams attend every day.

Please offer your support and ensure that your children have the benefit of a good nights sleep and breakfast before leaving home and arrive in good time for registration.

A proof should be issued on the same day to enable you place orders by Friday 5th June.

 

Swine Flu

You may be aware of the recent reports of Swine Flu here in the UK.

The Health Authority are urging everyone to ensure that hands are correctly washed and that a very simple and common sense approach is applied to anyone that has a cold or cough.

Please find attached leaflets giving advice on the prevention of germs spreading. I would be grateful if you could advise children how important it is to always wash their hands at home and in school and encourage the use of tissues.
