Dear families,
What a long half term this is, especially for the very youngest of our children: they are doing so well to keep going! Fortunately, the fire engine has been in and given everyone a good waking-up.
It is a strange time of year, with our Open Mornings for 2025 Reception taking place and Reception ’24 having only just started! The reputation of our small-but-mightiness grows and grows with our wonderful children, and we have had so many wanting to join our Sheriffhales family.
Some of those children have made us very proud this week: thank you to our Bronze Ambassador and to our cross-country runners for representing us so well.
Ta-da! We hope you like and are using our lovely new lending library. Thank you so much to Mrs Vaughan for making this! Please do make lots and lots of use of it!
The PTFA held their AGM this week and reviewed all that they have achieved over the last year – it is so impressive. A heartfelt thanks goes out to everyone who helps with the PTFA and supports it – what a huge difference it makes for every child in our school.
Our Sheriffhales 6 outdoor learning has begun in earnest – please make sure your child has their outdoor kit in school each week, rain (especially rain) or shine. Any too-small wellies and waterproofs would be very welcome in the preloved uniform shop!
Lastly, please share the message that children must be supervised after end of school, including at tuck shop / cafe on a Friday – some were playing in the lane outside the hall this week. Please make sure they are playing on the green in front of the hall where they are safely in sight. We would also ask that children are not running in and out of the hall as this brings a lot of mud in, which volunteers then have to clean up.
Have a look at the fabulous things children have been doing over the last 2 weeks – fire engines, drums, libraries…we’ve got the lot!
Have a lovely weekend!
