KPA NEWS & REMINDERS On Wear a Hat Day (24th March), we raised a total of £45 for Brain Tumour Research. There were some very interesting hats on display on the heads of both pupils and staff, so well done to all those who made the effort to support this little known charity.
See www.braintumourresearch.org for further details of what this charity does. Thank you.
We had a really fun time supporting Sport Relief last Friday. The school was vibrant with children and staff in outfits depicting their favourite sports people. £86.10 was the total amount raised by pupils who donated their £1s and staff who took part in the Jo Brand sweepstake. Thank you so much for your support in sending in the money and helping with the amazing costumes.
Here are the winners of the Multi sport tournament. Fantastic team spirit and very good sportsmanship. Well done KPA!
Well done to all the children in Rowan who decorated Easter eggs as part of our Reward day celebrations. The prize winners are shown: Y6, Y5 and Y4.
Thank you to all the parents and grandparents who came to church with us on Tuesday. Brilliant singing, reading and Easter bonnet parading from the children!
We ask that if money is brought to the school office, please ensure that the correct amount is given in sealed and named envelope. Many thanks.
Please can we stress the importance of reading at home with your child. It really does make a huge difference. After a book has been read, please log it in their reading record book.
