8th March 2024
The very best weeks and the very best events are those that are enjoyed by everyone in our community, so look out next year, as there is talk of opening up the Masked Reader competition to the parents to enjoy too!
Wishing you a peaceful weekend,
Anne Clewley
Head Teacher
The Foodbank is extremely grateful to all individuals and organisations who support our work and to the people of Stratford-upon-Avon and its environs who regularly donate food and cash. Without this, we would not be able to improve our service to the growing number of people who need our help in times of crisis. Thank you again for your thoughtfulness at this time."
This is a wonderful acknowledgement of everyone's donations and thoughtfulness - and we have also exactly matched our mega donation weight from last year. Well done and thank you to everyone who kindly donated!
Mark your calendars for our school's Easter Bingo on Thursday, March 21st! It's going to be egg-citing fun with fantastic prizes, bingo cards, and don't forget to pre-book your entrance ticket and food online at https://www.pta-events.co.uk/friendsofalveston/.
Children are more than welcome to play along and experience the excitement of bingo! Let's make it a family affair filled with laughter and joy.
For the comfort and enjoyment of all attendees, we kindly request that children stay seated during the game. This ensures fairness and allows everyone to fully immerse themselves in the bingo experience.
Keep your eyes peeled for exciting updates on prizes and special rounds! It's going to be an egg-ceptional evening of fun.
But wait, there's more! Don't miss out on our Uniform Sales from Monday, March 11th to Friday, March 15th, every day at pick-up time from 3:15 PM onwards. Most items priced between £1-£5!
On Friday, March 22nd, we're hosting an Easter Bake Off! Calling all bakers to showcase their culinary talents. Stay tuned for categories, judging criteria, and how to enter.
And that's not all! Save the date for our NEW Summer Fayre on Friday, May 24th. Get ready for a day filled with family fun, attractions, stalls, and entertainment!
Let's make this term one to remember!
This is an introductory workshop following their stepped approach to supporting families in Warwickshire and is about helping families deal with any issues as early as possible. (Parents/carers must live in Warwickshire). The Parenting Together workshop is for parents (including expectant parents) of children 0-19 (25 with SEND) living together and those living apart. It is suitable for co-parents in separate homes, single parents supported by other adult carers, extended families, and blended ‘step’ families. The word “parents” is used to refer to anyone in a parenting role, including foster carers, grandparents, etc.
Please let the school office know each day your child is absent from school by calling 01789 293412, option 1, and leaving a message. You may also email parents3002@welearn365.com. You do not need to contact us daily if your child is sick/vomits. Absences for sickness/vomiting will be recorded 48 hours from the end of the day your child was last sick (i.e. if sick on Sunday, come back on Wednesday; if Tuesday come back on Friday) nor for COVID absences.
Medicines in School
We cannot accept medicines in school without a prescription label and a medical form completed by a parent or carer. Please ask the school office for more information and/or a form via parents3002@welearn365.com.
