PLEASE BE AWARE
There are concerns surrounding the Mo Mo and Tick Tock Apps. Unfortunately what seems at first to be a fun site for children is actually a suicide site, that promotes via pop-ups and getting the children to 'do' certain things. Please be careful when downloading apps.
HALF TERM HOLIDAY
Just a reminder school shuts today for the February half term holiday and opens back up on Monday 25th February - normal time.
Hope everyone has a good break, keeps safe when out and about and we look forward to seeing the children in smart school uniform ready for learning as next half term is even busier - especially for Year 2 and Year 6 with their upcoming SATS!
CHARITY FUNDRAISING
We have some charity fundraising events taking place in school over the next week - all organised by pupils themselves!
Friday 8th February: We are holding a cake sale in school, organised by our two Ambassadors - Elizabeth Hope and Kelsey Follows for Walsall Mayor Marco Longhi's charity WPH Counselling.
Anabelle Yeomans-Whitelaw will be providing her own hair for real hair wigs for children suffering with hair loss and is currently collecting sponsors and donations for the Little Princess Trust and what is such a lovely cause.
Good luck girls - we are very proud of you
