ISSUE 74 -  7th March 2025

Dear Parents and Carers,

 

World Book Day

The children and staff have had a great week studying a book called Quest, using drama, art and writing to retell the story.  Do ask your children about it.

 

Y4 Viking Day

Year 4 are currently learning about the Vikings and the impact they had on Britain.  On Monday they will be enjoying a whole day themed around the Viking culture and beliefs.  Look out for posts on our social media to discover more next week.

 

Uniform Reminder

If children are wearing trainers to school on a non-PE day, the trainers must be all black.  White trainers are not allowed as normal school footwear.  Also, please reminder only one pair of stud earrings are allowed.  If children are wearing dangly earrings or multiple pairs, and/or necklaces, then they will be asked to remove them for safety reasons. Thank you for your co-operation.

 

Have a good weekend.

Best Wishes, Miss Loughlin and all the staff at St Stephen's.
