Being Considerate to our Neighbours We are receiving various complaints from our neighbours. Parking over their drop curb driveways, is causing upset and difficulties for them coming and going from their properties. They too have to be at various places at certain times and although you may think to yourself, you are only going to be 5 minutes, that 5 minutes could make them late for where they should be. Please DO NOT park over a driveway, as this is classed as an obstruction. We have informed the police and parking attendants of this and they will be patrolling the area to support us with these problems.
Online Payments - Going Live As you will be aware we have recently started using a system called ParentMail to communicate with our parents and an amazing 73% of you have registered to ensure that you receive emails regarding information about school events (including trips), emergency and important texts, and to enable you to make online appointment bookings for Parents Evenings. ParentMail has now launched an online payment facility and we are pleased to announce that with effect from 6th June 2016 you will be able to make payments for your child’s school lunches and trips and also reserve tickets for school performances when they occur. If you are already registered with ParentMail then you are ready to go:
Should you wish to make a payment for school lunches then just click on the Payment option on the front page of ParentMail and follow the options available. When payments are required for trips, you will receive an email informing you of the details. When you reply to give your permission for your child to attend you will automatically be directed to the payment option to make your payment.
We would encourage all parents to use this facility to ensure that you have a record of all payments made and that lose money is not lost in transit. Should you not yet have registered to use ParentMail, please contact the school office who will send you a text to enable you to do so. If you have any queries regarding this, please do not hesitate to contact the school office.

Uniform Orders DEADLINE: Friday 24th June 2016 If you would like to place an order for new uniform for September, now is the time to be thinking about it. We encourage parents to place orders on the www.schooltrends.co.uk website. You can place your order and pay direct with your card. After the deadline of 24th June, all the orders will be collated and sent off by the school office. This will hopefully be delivered to school before we finish for summer break. If you are not able to place your orders online for some reason, you can alternatively send a paper copy order to the school office in an envelope along with payment. These orders will be manually entered by a member of staff, but as this takes longer, the orders may not be here until September. INSET DAY
