Dear
parents,
HALF
TERM UPDATE
UNIVERSAL INFANT FREE SCHOOL MEALS:
You may have already heard
in the press and on television that from September 2014 all INFANT pupils will
be receiving a Free School Lunch. Obviously for us this means catering for many
more pupils than we currently are. We are therefore planning this term how to
increase capacity in our school kitchen which was not built with this in mind.
We will be writing to you shortly explaining final arrangements for September,
so your patience with this is greatly appreciated.
NEW CURRICULUM:
Also in September 2014, a
new National Curriculum is coming into place and we are busy preparing for this
change too. We will be sending out more information towards the end of the term
on this too! As part of this we are investing in a well-known international
curriculum to ensure that children experience a broad and balance curriculum in
school. This is called the International Primary Curriculum (IPC) and we are
starting this term with one of the units on the World Cup. More information on
this will be given to your child this week.
SCHOOL WEBSITE:
We are also updating our
school website this term and would really value any ideas you may have on what
other information would be useful to be put on there. Please complete slip on
the back of this letter with your suggestions and return to the school office.
This information and all
our letters can be made available in other languages, please let us know if you
require this.
Thank you again for your
continued support this half term.
Yours sincerely
Mrs. A.
Lipski ,
Head Teacher
