Week beginning 18th September 2017

We have been pleased to be able to welcome our new Reception families to The Hayes this week. The children have settled in well and it’s been great to see them around the school looking so smart and confident. To see our EYFS in action, please take a look at our website (Gallery) and also on Twitter.

We hope that our parents found the Secondary Transfer Meeting informative on Thursday. If you would like to read the powerpoint presentation, it has been uploaded onto our website (Parent Information tab/Parent Workshops).

Congratulations to all of our children who received their Excellence Certificate today. Well done! Also a massive thank you to our Teaching Assistants who do so much for our children at The Hayes (and staff and parents!) Today is Teaching Assistant day and we celebrated in style by presenting each star with a certificate, reading out lovely poems and singing our TA song. Many thanks to Clare Wetherell who made cupcakes for lovely ladies, they were very well received and deservedly spoilt.

Coming up next week:

On Tuesday there is a PTA meeting in the staffroom at 6pm.

On Thursday we are holding our ‘What we are learning this term’ parents meetings. Please see the times listed below:

Year 1 – 3.30pm in Class 1

Year 2 – 4.00pm in Class 3

Year 3 – 4.30pm in Class 5

Year 4 – 5.00pm in Class 7

Year 5 – 5.30pm in Class 9

Year 6 – 6.00pm in Class 11

Unfortunately we are unable to provide child care for these meetings due to SLT being in them.

On Friday 22^nd September 2017 we are fund raising for Jeans for Genes, children can wear their jeans for £1.00 with their school jumpers. This is an opportunity for us to do something amazing for the half a million children in the UK who are affected by a life-altering genetic disorder.

Thank you for your support as always.

Have a lovely weekend.
