Dear Parents/Carers

Harvest Festival – Thursday 7^th October 2021

We shall be holding our Harvest Festival for children in Years 1-6 at Holy Trinity Church, Roft Street.  It will take place on Thursday 7^th October at 9.30pm and we shall be walking there and back so children will need to wear sensible shoes and a coat.  We welcome all parents and carers to attend.

We would like to ask each child for a small donation of pasta or dried goods, cereal, long-life milk or tinned food (beans, soup etc) but no fresh produce as we are asking each class to create a hamper.  This will be used to make a harvest display in church and then donated to the Foodbank in Oswestry.  I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for helping us to support this worthwhile charity.

How Foodbank works:

As a nation, we know it isn’t right that anyone should be left hungry or living in extreme poverty. But whilst we work for long-term change, the network of food banks provide emergency food and compassionate, dignified support to people locked in crisis.

A typical food parcel includes:

• Cereal
• Soup
• Pasta
• Rice
• Tinned tomatoes/ pasta sauce
• Lentils, beans and pulses
• Tinned meat
• Tinned vegetables
• Tea/coffee
• Tinned fruit
• Biscuits
• UHT milk
• Fruit juice

We are asking each child to bring in one item – (see list above). Please can food items be in class no later than Tuesday 5^th October.

As you are aware, we hold several school services at Holy Trinity Church throughout the school year including Harvest, Christmas and Easter and Leavers Service.  Please could you sign and return the slip below which gives permission for your child to attend all of these. We shall continue to let you know the dates so that you can attend these services.

I look forward to seeing you at Holy Trinity Church.

Yours sincerely

Mr R Kenyon – Head of School      RE Lead – Miss J Hutson

Hello everybody its been a busy few weeks at breakfast and after school club. The children are enjoying a range of activities and we would like to share with you some photos of the wonderful experiences they have been having. The club is becoming more and more popular and we want this to continue so please spread the word. The children are offered a range of foods for their breakfast in the morning and  a range of snacks after school including beans on toast, soup and bread, sandwiches, crackers and cheese and lots of other offerings.

It is lovely to see the children mixing with each other . Please make sure you book and pay through parent pay.

Dear Parents and Carers

Children that are known to school as Asthma sufferers or those children that have had to use an inhaler in the last 12 months will have come home with an envelope containing new paperwork. Please complete this paperwork in order for us to update our records and return to school as soon as possible.  If your child needs to use an inhaler and you have not yet advised school, please do so immediately so we can update our records.

Next Thursday our caterers MIQUILL are putting on a special BIG BREAKFAST treat for the children.  See menu below!  It’s a great opportunity for those children who have not experienced a school lunch to have taste and a try.

If you would like your child to have a BIG BREAKFAST please let their teacher know on Thursday morning and we can add it to your Parentpay account.

We’re taking part in the Morrisons – It’s Good to Grow scheme.

For every £10.00 spent (in store & online) you’ll get a Grow token for school. We will then be able to exchange our tokens for FREE gardening equipment to help get our children growing. With 3,000 vouchers we can get lots of digging implements, planters, bulbs and seeds plus lots of other exciting things.

Please ask your friends and family to collect the vouchers for us.
