Dogs on School Grounds

We have discovered dog mess several times over the past few days – which really is not fair on our children or the staff that have to pick this up.

 

Please could we remind everyone that accessing the school grounds out of school hours is trespassing.

Chicken Pox

We would like to let you know that we have had several cases of children having Chicken Pox reported to us. If your child does develop Chicken Pox under NHS guidance they should be kept off school until all the spots have dried up/crusted over as long as they are well enough.

Forest School – Pond

During the summer, a pond was installed in the Forest School area.

 

We have a further plans on developing our Forest School – including extending our existing on-site area and utilising the nearby woodland (owned by the Community Land Trust) for our KS2 Forest School sessions – and may be looking at putting together some working parties in the near future. If anyone is interested in helping with this, please get in touch.

Weather watch – Thursday Evening / Friday Morning

With ongoing potential amber weather warnings (for snow) for Thursday evening (8pm) until Friday morning (9am), we will be reviewing the forecast over the day and into the evening tomorrow (Thursday).

 

The school has no plans for closure tomorrow – unless there is a significant change between now and tomorrow morning. A decision on whether we can be open on Friday will be made on Friday morning (or Thursday evening – should conditions be particularly bad already at that point).

 

If we are forced to close, then this will be shared via the school website, school Facebook page and via Shropshire Council closure page.

Dodgeball Club – Now bookable

Please note that there was a technical error on ParentPay with dodgeball club, meaning that it was not showing up on anyone’s account to book.
This has been fixed now – and anyone wanting to book onto dodgeball club can do so.

Christmas Tree Auction

A big thank you to Burwarton Estate for their donation of the large (~15ft) Christmas tree – which some of you may have seen in the school hall during the recent nativity performance.

 

An extra thank you this year to Anita and Duncan Pearce – who donated the smaller (~8ft) Christmas tree (situated just outside the main entrance).

 

Same as last year, we are looking to auction both trees off to raise some further funds for FOBCS (our PTA).

If anyone would like to make bid for either Christmas tree, please do so via the following link: FOBCS – Christmas Tree Auction ’25 – Fill in form
