Headteacher's Blog - 22/9/25

This week we had our first Prospective Parent tour for children who want to join our school in Nursery or Reception in September 2026. If you know of anyone whose child is due to start school in September 2026, please direct them to our website, where there is information about booking onto a tour. 

As you will have noticed, at the bottom of the Newsletter each week there are key dates for your diaries for the Autumn Term, so that you can plan in advance. We will endeavour not to change dates, unless there is no other option. These dates can also be found on the website calendar. 

I wanted to remind parents about starting times.  Children from year R - 6 can enter the building between 8.40 and 8.55. Nursery children start at 9am.  Children can not be dropped off before this time for safeguarding reasons. Please do not open the gate to the outside areas – our Nursery staff will do this at 9am, when the nursery opens.  

Next Tuesday, 23rd September, I am running the first Parent Forum of the academic year. This will be a chance to hear about the school priorities for the year and contribute to our consultation on learning behaviours. I look forward to seeing many of you there. 

Finally, you will have seen that FOBS is running a volunteer event on the morning of Sunday, September 28th to clear up the nature garden at the school. So that we all have an idea of numbers, if you are planning to attend, please can you sign up via this form: https://forms.gle/dHHCV6sdQMvasCCh9

Have a lovely weekend
