ISSUE 04 - 16TH December 2022

Dear Parents and Carers,

Merry Christmas!

If you are celebrating Christmas, we hope you enjoy your celebrations. We hope that everyone has a very happy holiday with family and friends.

Nativity

Thank you to parents who came to our nativity play yesterday and today. We hope you enjoyed it, and liked the message that ‘everybody can be a superstar!’ Well done to all pupils for their singing and performing.

Attendance letters

All parents should have received a letter telling you how good your child's attendance and punctuality was this term. Please note that this information includes authorised (and unauthorised) absences and all illnesses, and is simply to inform you of your child's current attendance and punctuality figures. We aim for 96% attendance across school. Please help your child to be an attendance HERO!

We hope that you have a wonderful holiday. All children are back at school on Wednesday 4th January.

Have a great holiday!

Mr Elcock (Deputy Head)

December 

All pupils took part in our nativity play this year, either by acting or singing their year group's song. The play was called 'Superstar' and everybody's favourite song had the message that 'Everybody here can be a superstar' which is so true of all our pupils at St Stephen's.

Please go and 'shine your light in the world' everyone!
