Copdock Weekly Update 28/01/2022

COVID update
 
I am sure you are all keeping up to date with the changes to restrictions.  As we are keen to keep everyone safe and school functioning as normal, we believe it is sensible to continue with mask wearing at drop off and collection if on the school site for the time being.  Thank you for your support.

Monday Menu

Please be advised there will be no jacket potato option on Monday for dinners.  Jackets will be available again from Tuesday.  We apologise for any inconvenience.

2s Day

Don't forget next Wednesday is 2s day - children are invited to come into school dressed in the theme of "2" for a £1 donation.

Reading Surveys

Message from Mrs Robinson - Thank you to the families who have completed and returned their reading for pleasure survey so promptly.  The deadline for completing and returning remaining surveys is Friday 4th February.

PGL deadline

Today was the deadline for confirming places for children in years 4 & 5 to attend the residential scheduled for November 2022.  If you haven't completed a form please email the office NOW!

Uniform Order

Please be advised we have revised our prices for uniform as a Federation and brought them all in-line, therefore costs may have changed from the last order.  We have also opened up the ability to pay not only by cash or cheque, but also via the school website.  You will however, still need to return the form in the usual way regardless of how you pay.  Order forms must be received in the school office by Friday 11th February - please indicate on the form how the order is to be paid for, and if cash or cheque, this needs to be included with the order.  The order form can be found here.

We tend to do a uniform order each term just before half term.  Should you need uniform in between times we do have a limited amount of 2nd hand uniform available on request.  This is also offered at PTA fayres.  If you have uniform to donate, please send it into the office.

Menu Change - Friday 18th February

On the last day of half term, the kitchen are offering us a change in the menu, but we need to know numbers in advance please by 11th February please.  Burgers will be the main choice, with vegetable goujons as the alternative.  Please can you complete the Form by the 11th even if your child will bring in a packed lunch.

Bulbs

We are pleased to offer tulips and iris bulbs for sale next week.  These have again been kindly donated by Thompson & Morgan.  We are saving them from the compost heap to give you a chance to grow them - but they do need planting now!  If you would like some, please bring a donation to the school next week in exchange for a bag of bulbs.

"Know that I am with you always," Matthew 28:20 We encourage the spiritual, social, moral and cultural development of the school family by embedding Christian values into everyday life. Our vision is for all children to be confident individuals, successful learners and responsible citizens who are well equipped for future life, knowing that God is with them always.
