Once again I would ask you to avoid booking holiday in term time. Year 6 parents next year need to note that SATs week will be the week commencing Monday 8 th May. Year 6 children must be in school this week.

Open Evening We hope you are able to come along on Monday 18th (4:30pm to 5:30pm if you are attending the concert: 5:30pm to 7:00pm for the open event). With any luck the temperature will be cooler then! If your child is playing an instrument in the concert, they need to be back at school for 4:10pm please.

Next week Year 4 are enjoying various opportunities to get to know children from Meath Green Juniors and Brooklands School. Both Meath Green Junior and Yattendon pupils will be finding our more about the special abilities of children attending Brooklands School during a joint sports event, music event and creative workshop. This last activity will take place at Brooklands itself. We are hoping that the children from all three schools benefit from sharing time with each other and comparing their lives and experiences of school. Our school council have already visited Brooklands School and will be presenting an assembly on Monday to share the knowledge they have gained about Brookland’s specialist facilities and the children they met. We are fortunate that one of our parents is the Head Teacher of Brooklands School and this provided a wonderful opportunity.

Sports Day Sports day takes place on Monday 4th July (am). Gates open from 9:05am. Back gate closes at 9:15am. We kindly ask parents to remain in the spectators’ area (indicated with barrier fencing). Signs will indicate where you may find adult toilets. Please bring your own refreshments, as we are unable to provide teas/coffees or cold drinks this year.
