Welcome back to school and introduction to the new school year meeting for all parents and care givers is on Thursday 4th September at 3.15pm.

Meeting for parents and care givers of children in Shaftsbury is in Shaftsbury Classroom.

Meeting for parents and care givers of children in Gawthorne and Hamilton is in Hamilton Classroom. If your child is in Year 6, you will join the other Year 6 parents after you have met your child's teacher to find out about applying for Secondary School and SATs.

This Autumn Term is going to be busy. As well as making new friendships, there will be a significant focus on establishing routines and expectations. These help all the children to thrive, learn and perform at their best levels.Please ensure your child attends school every day and ready for an 8.40am prompt start. Every moment missed in the school day has a long lasting impact on children's education. As always, if you have any questions there are a number of ways that you can contact us: You can speak to us directly at the end of any school day, you can get a message to us via the staff on the gates before or after school or you can contact the school through a phone call or an email.
