• Eid

  Wed 26 Mar 2025 A. Mumford

  Dear all,

   

  As some of you may know, the Muslim community will be celebrating Eid next week. We have a high level of staff who will be off work, celebrating with family and friends.

   

  As such, we have had to make the decision that on Monday 31 March 2025, the school will be closed to all children expect those classified as “vulnerable”. These are children who currently have social care support.

   

  However, Year 5 will be in school on Monday 31 March and will be off on Tuesday 1 April (unless considered "vulnerable").

   

  Letters have gone home about this, this afternoon (or tomorrow if your child was not in today).

   

  I appreciate that this is the second closure in as many weeks, so I thank you again for your co-operation and understanding.

   

  I am sure you join me in wishing all of our pupils, families and colleagues who are celebrating, a very happy Eid.

   

  Thank you

  Angela Mumford

• Tesco Stronger Starts Grant

  Wed 11 Dec 2024 Sally Trevena

  We have recently been awarded a grant from Tesco Stronger Starts; a scheme that gives community projects and schools like ours grants of up to £1,500. Further information can be found on their website: https://www.tescoplc.com/strongerstarts

  Thank you to all the Tesco customers who voted for our school as this has enabled us to purchase scooters and tricycles to support with developing pupil’s physical health and wellbeing. They are being used as part of pupil’s Occupational Therapy Sessions; helping to develop physical skills including spatial awareness, balance, coordination and core stability.

  Children throughout the school have also been using the scooters and tricycles especially at the end of the day when it has helped them to regulate before going home.

  This is a valuable addition to the resources that we have in the school and children are enjoying using the equipment as can be seen in the photos.

  

• Slough SEND Newsletter

  Wed 06 Nov 2024 A. Mumford

  Information from Slough SEND Team:

  We are pleased to inform you of the launch of our new Keeping You Connected newsletter, specifically tailored to provide updates on our work in Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND). This monthly newsletter aims to keep families, schools, and stakeholders informed about key initiatives, support services, and recent developments across the SEND landscape in our community.

  The latest October issue is now available, and we’ve made it accessible through the SEND Local Offer, where it is prominently highlighted in both the ‘News and Articles’ section and in a dedicated dropdown menu for easy navigation. The newsletter is also available on our Special Educational Needs and Disabilities newsletter page, which we will be updating regularly with future editions.

  We hope this additional communication channel will strengthen our connection with our SEND community and provide valuable insights into our progress, including updates on the priorities outlined in our Written Statement of Action (WSOA).
