Inspiration, Celebration and Education
Keep up to date with all the latest news happening in school at the moment.
We will be celebrating Children's Mental Health Week 7th-13th February. This year's theme is 'Growing Together'. This Children’s Mental Health Week, we’re asking you to Dress to Express on Friday 11 February.
Use clothing to express yourself by celebrating 'Dress to Express Day' and donating a silver coin to the Place2Be charity. You could wear your favourite colour or a unique outfit to express how you’re feeling, it can be as simple or elaborate as you like! Dress to Express is an opportunity for self-expression and celebrating a diverse range of emotions. The week also provides a great opportunity to be open about mental health and start conversations within our school community.
This February half term, Gloucestershire County Council is providing vouchers to parents who have signed up to their Holiday Free School Meals (FSM) scheme. These vouchers are provided by Gloucestershire County Council as part of their commitment to ‘no child goes hungry’.
Parents who have signed up to the scheme will receive a voucher for £15 for each child who is eligible for FSM which will cover the February half term week (21st - 25th). The scheme is eligible for children aged 4-16 years old.
Parents who have signed up previously do not need to re-register, they have already been included, but, to ensure we get all who are eligible, we are encouraging new parents to sign up as soon as they can. This can be done by following this link:

We look forward to seeing you all on Wednesday 5th January for the new School term.
