HALWILL SCHOOL Newsletter No.33 SUMMER TERM 12 th June 2015 FOOTBALL TOURNAMENT A massive THANK YOU to Clare Martyn and Kath Edworthy for sorting and arranging the football tournament timetables and for ordering new kits which have gratefully been funded by The Friends and Halwill After School Club. Our thanks also to Rich Edworthy for fixing the post!; to the parents who are managing the teams; Pennie Channing, Rupert Wetherall, Nicky Wonnacott and Cath Grigg; to the volunteer referees and to The Friends for providing the tuck shop and refreshments. Here’s to a successful tournament! WILD FOR LEARNING AREA Do you have any waterproofs and outgrown wellies that you could donate to school? Making the most of our Wild for Learning Area means that sometimes opportunities are best seized rather than planned. Therefore if we have a stock of waterproofs and boots in school that we can use for our classes then we can make the most of every opportunity. Please send in any items that you have to your Class Teacher. Thank you, Miss Miners & Mrs Rothery. PE KIT – WHOLE SCHOOL REMINDER Ideally PE Kits should be brought into school on a Monday and left here all week. Due to an increasing number of children regularly forgetting their kits we have decided to adopt the following procedure:- 1 st Non-KitChildren may join in with the PE session. 2 nd Non-KitChildren may join in with the PE session and a text sent to parent. 3 rd Non-KitChildren sit out the PE session and a phonecall made to parent. We appreciate your support with this matter. Our School Attendance Target is 95.5% and 0 Late Marks. Whole School attendance for last week ~ 2 nd – 5 th June: 95.05% and 0 Late Marks
