Message from the Headteacher
Lubbins Park Primary School Monday 9th March 2015 To be the best that I can be!
Message from the Headteacher We had a great turnout for World Book Day, lots of costumes and topics for conversation. This is in line with the purchase of our new guided reading books. We will be holding an afternoon session about reading and the new scheme in the Summer term and hope you will be able to attend. Further information will also be circulated through the usual channels. We have Red Nose Day this Friday and children will be expected to come to school wearing red for a donation of £1.00. We are also looking for funny faces which could be face paints, make up or masks. It is great that you are all so supportive and we are able to contribute to worthy causes such as this.
