Dear Parents,

This October half term, Gloucestershire County Council is providing vouchers to eligible families who have signed up to our Holiday Free School Meals (FSM) scheme. These vouchers are provided by Gloucestershire County Council as part of its commitment to ‘No Child Goes Hungry’. Families who have signed up to the scheme will receive £15 per child, for the week half term.
The scheme is for children from Reception to Year 6 who have signed up for Pupil Premium and receive benefits-related free school meals.
Parents who have signed up previously do not need to re-register, as you will already have been included.
If you have not already signed up, please do so as soon as you can. This can be done via the following link:

If your child started Reception this September and you would like to add to them to your existing application of the scheme, please get in contact by emailing childrensfund@gloucestershire.gov.uk so that they an update your details, as this is not an automatic process.
Applications for Holiday Free School Meal Vouchers for the October half term period are now open until the 11th October. Voucher emails will be sent out on 19th October. If you have not received their vouchers by the 19th October please get in contact by emailing childrensfund@gloucestershire.gov.uk.
I am sure that you will now be aware that the funeral of the Queen will be taking place on Monday 19th September 2022. This day has been declared a Bank Holiday and therefore the school will be closed next Monday.
We are all very sad and shocked to hear the death of our Queen. Today we will be holding a commemerative Collective Worship to celebrate the life and reign of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and pray for her family and the repose of her soul.
