SPECIAL MENTIONS
None due to Easter rehearsal in church.
EASTER PRODUCTION
Thank you to the Y5/6 children and to Miss Hudson for a wonderful Easter performance in church this week. The
children have worked incredibly hard on the production and I know Miss Hudson was very proud of all their
efforts as I am sure parents were too. Well done to them all.
NEWSPAPER
Many of you will have bought and read the new school newspaper, named by the publishing group as 'From the
Students' Mouth...'. The group had lots of ideas for the newspaper and we also had articles from other children
in school. We look forward to seeing what they come up with for the summer edition!
BMS MUSIC LESSONS
Music lessons will continue in the summer term for those children currently participating. If your child no longer
wishes to continue with their music tuition in the summer term please send a letter to the school office so that
Barnsley Music Service (BMS) can be informed. Payment for music tuition should be made on
Schoolmoney.co.uk and payments should be made no later than Friday 17 th April.
Y3/Y4 HOCKEY
The Y3/4 children attended a hockey tournament yesterday afternoon competing against children across
Barnsley. They have been working on their hockey skills on Wednesday afternoons. The children played really
well and were a credit to the school, we are very proud of them.
CLASS PHOTOS
These will take place on Thursday 16th April in the afternoon and will be available for purchase shortly
afterwards.
ROBINWOOD 2016
Next March we will be taking the Y5 and Y6 children to Robinwood Activity Centre at Todmorden. We would like
to invite all parents and children who are currently Y4 and Y5 to a meeting to view a DVD about the centre and
have a chance to discuss plans on Monday 20th April at 5.00pm. Please join us if you can!
DINNER MONEY
There will be 29 days during next half term therefore dinner money will be £50.75. All dinner money payments
must be made on Schoolmoney.com. Payments can be made at any time using the Top Up option but please
ensure that payments are made prior to dinners been eaten so that your account does not go into arrears. Thank
You
OPEN CHURCH

hearing a reading from the Talking Heads series of monologues by Alan Bennett 'A Cream Cracker Under the
