Learning Reviews
Thank you for attending Learning Reviews this week. It was wonderful to see everyone being able to come back into school again. We hope that you and your child found this process useful. If teachers were not able to share current assessment information with you at the meeting, this will be sent home in the next couple of weeks.
Open Classrooms - 23/3/22
Don’t forget that our Open Classrooms event will take place on Wednesday 23rd March, from 3.30pm – 5pm. This is the opportunity for you to look at your child’s work with them.
Comic Relief
Comic Relief day is next Friday, 18th March. We still have red nosed for sale for £1.50 if children would like to buy one via ParentPay. We are not doing additional fundraising activities on the day, but will do some themed activities in class.
FOSS Big Breakfast
Thank you to FOSS for providing our Big Breakfast today, and for everyone who was able to support us. It was lovely to see everyone in school, and the funds raised will be used to directly benefit our children.
Mrs Pedley
We would like to extend our congratulations to Mrs Pedley who is expecting a baby in early June. She will start maternity leave at the end of May, and we are currently recruiting a replacement. If you know anyone who would like to work in our lovely school please do make them aware of the vacancy.
Sustrans Big walk and wheel event
Don't forget we are excited to be taking part in the Sustrans Big walk and wheel event for two weeks from 21st March. There are lots of ways that you can support this. They have produced a free guide for families that can be found at
https://bit.ly/3KgDM7h Eco Warriors Tip
This week's water-saving tip from Marcus, one of our Eco Warriors is - use a bowl in the sink when washing fruit, vegetables or dishes. You can then use the waste water to water your plants.
School Lunches
Please see the new Spring 2022 Lunch menu below. Next week we will be on Week 1 of lunches.
Children can decide daily whether they are having a school dinner or packed lunch.
Please ensure you discuss the menu each day with your child so they can decide what they would like to order. Once they know their choices, they will choose this each morning with their teacher during registration.
Each day there are 4 choices, either the hot dinner, hot vegetarian option, jacket potato with a choice of toppings or a sandwich. The sandwich and jacket potato always come with a selection of vegetables/salad on the side and have the full pudding choice for that day.
Amazon Smile
Don’t forget that if you use Amazon Smile and have registered our school for donations, FOSS will receive a donation. This is a very quick and easy way to make money for our children, so please do remember to keep checking that your orders have been placed this way.
Stikins
Help raise money for FOSS and label your children's school items. The soft plastic labels can be stuck on machine wash-care labels of clothes, but can also be used on shoes, dishwasher items and general school items.
Please order via the website www.stikins.co.uk and quote Saxton school number 17524
Car Parking reminder
Please be considerate when parking near the school crossing. If parked too close it can be very difficult to see if it is safe to cross, particularly at pick up time-thank you.
