ISSUE 75 -  14th March 2025

Dear Parents and Carers,

 

Science Week

It has been another busy week at St Stephen's, this week in particular we have been thinking about Science and significant discoveries and the people who made those discoveries.  Do check out the social media posts about our learning in science this week.

Well done to everyone who brought in an egg decorated as a famous scientist - there were some great eggdeas!!!

 

Parent Cafe and the School Nurse

Our parent cafe runs every Wednesday morning in the Orchard from 9am.  Next week, Wednesday 19th March, our school nurse will be present.  So if you have any questions regarding your child's health or welfare, do pop along to ask the question.

 

Mother's Day Gifts

Many of you will have seen or heard about the Mother's Day gifts that our office staff have been very busy organising.  Children who have paid £4 for a gift will get to choose a gift on Thursday 27th March to bring home on that day.

 

Have a lovely weekend,

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