A reminder to all parents that PE (Physical Education) and swimming in Years 4-6 are compulsory parts of the national curriculum and pupils must take part. Obviously, they must also be appropriately dressed for PE with a change of clothes (kit) and footwear, e.g. trainers or plimsolls.

Birthday Celebrations in school – Thank you to all parents and carers who are following the new governor guidelines and bringing either healthy food or educational gifts to celebrate your child’s birthday.

Dear Parents/Carers

This has been a packed half term, with lots of exciting learning opportunities, ‘Maths Matters’ sessions and the first four apprentice tasks.

Our remaining 16 apprentices put on a superb ‘Movie Night’ yesterday for 300 pupils and parents. What a wonderful thing this is – pupils creating fabulous and fun opportunities for each other!

Our brilliant ASF do similar work at lunchtimes, setting up sports activities for younger pupils.

This shows both great leadership skills and also a desire to work for others in the community. Everything you would want from an Abbey pupil in fact!
