Dear Parents/Carers
 
We have had a great week in school, rounded off with a superb assembly from Y4 Mrs/Hurst/Mrs Collier's Class that taught us everything they know about electricity.
 
Y6
 Well done to all our Y6 pupils whose attitude and determination was wonderful this week as they tackled their SAT tests. They can be immensely proud of themselves as I know you will be of them. Thankyou to our Y6 staff who as ever have played an integral part in supporting our pupils this year. They enjoyed a trip up to Brewer's Fayre today too for lunch to celebrate their hard work!
 
MB Fest 2024 and Healthy Living Week
We’re on countdown to the first ever Marus Bridge Fest on Saturday 8th June! FOMBA have shared a sneak preview of the festival map (attached) which gives a flavour of what you can look forward to on the day. Make sure it’s in your diary!
 
Healthy living week commences on Monday
Please keep your eyes peeled on your child’s Seesaw account for which days they are required to wear PE kit. Similarly, it is non-uniform day on Friday 24th May, which coincides with the Walk, Run, Jog fundraiser, so please could children wear something appropriate or bring in trainers to change into during the day when they do the event.
 
Next Friday, please could we ask for the following donations in preparation for the tombola:
EY and KS1 - chocolate, sweets and biscuits
KS2 - a bottle of something to drink 
 
Cyclist Dismount
Please can I remind cyclists to dismount on entering the school grounds. It’s to keep them and other little ones safe from harm.
 
Superstar Cheerleaders
A final big shout out to our very own Isla Lloyd, who's Hawks Intensity cheer team, took second, yes second, place in the world cheer championships held in America last week. It is a sensational achievement - one that I know the team, their families and their coach Nicola Lettman-Evans are still pinching themselves about! Well done to everyone who took part.
