We have found a pair of glasses on the school field today after sports day. They are in the school office, please call by if you think they could be yours.

We have been closely following the weather forecast and it seems to be clearing, so at this point in time we are planning to go ahead tomorrow morning.  Please do keep an eye on the website in the morning, just in case the weather forecast changes.

The school gates will open at 9.45am and races will start at 10am promptly.

FOBCS are kindly providing some teas, coffees and cakes (they might well need some help and support), and there will also be an ice cream on site (thank you Laura’s Ice-Creams).

Once the races are complete, children will be welcome to join their families for a picnic lunch and then will return to class at 1pm.  You are welcome to bring picnic blankets or chairs, but please note that we will be putting chairs out for parents, grandparents and families to sit on for the races.

Let’s keep our fingers crossed with the weather!

Just so you are aware, we are monitoring the weather forecasts (which are very variable dependent on which website you look at) with regards Sports morning on Wednesday.

At the moment the Met Office has no rain forecast so we will continue to monitor, but as the weather is very localised and changeable at the moment, please keep a watch on the website.  If we do have to rearrange we will be going for Thursday morning this week (29th June) – again weather dependent.

I wish we had a crystal ball!

We are looking forward to our annual Sports Morning next Wednesday, 28th June.  The races will start at 10am with gates opening from 9.45am when families and friends are more than welcome to come and watch.  We are expecting races to be complete by about midday when you are then welcome to bring a picnic lunch for after the races, and your child/children can join you for lunch, before returning to lessons at 1pm.

FOBCS will be hosting a refreshments stall where you can buy teas, coffee, squash and cakes, and there will also be an ice cream van.

If you wish your child to have a school packed lunch on Sports Day, please remember to order at least 3 days before using Parent Pay.

Does your child love music?  Have they expressed an interest in learning an instrument?

Our Music Teacher, Mrs Karen Kirkland, is looking ahead to the Autumn Term and is keen to encourage children to learn to play a musical instrument.  She can teach any instrument – be it keyboard, drums, trumpet, clarinet!

If you are interested then please click on this link to the Shropshire Music Service to find out more.

We have Chris and Jo Maddox in school tomorrow morning to take class and leaver photographs.  Please could all children wear their Active (PE) Uniform on tomorrow (19^th June) as school uniform.

If your child requires a school meal, please could you log onto ParentPay and book these as there have been several children this week who have not had their meals booked meaning that staff have had to ask them their menu choice in the morning ensuring that they had a meal they enjoyed. You can book meals 48 hours in advance and it is possible to book up until the end of term. If you do forget to book a meal, please call the school office as we have the facility to book these on the day.

If you need an activation letter for ParentPay please contact the school office who can arrange for this to be e-mailed to you.

Thank you for sending the children into school this morning looking so smart and ready for their photographs. Unfortunately, Chris, is unwell today and has not been able to come into school to take the photographs. We have arranged a new date and Chris and Jo will now be in school on Monday 19th June in the morning.

As today, please could we request that ALL children wear the Active P.E. Uniform please, so that everyone is wearing the one type of uniform – and this will be the only one that ALL children have due to the transition.

We hope you have enjoyed the sunny half term holiday and thought it would be helpful to remind families that tomorrow all the children are having their class photographs taken by Chris and Jo Maddox.

We have requested that ALL children wear the Active P.E. Uniform please, so that everyone is wearing the one type of uniform – and this will be the only one that ALL children have due to the transition.

Chris and Jo Maddox will be in school to take the Class and Leaver’s photographs on Monday 5th June, the first day back after half term. Please could all children wear their Active (PE) Uniform on this day as school uniform.

Every Monday after school, we hold a dance club led by Miss Thornton from Crossbar Coaching.  The children are from Year 2 to Year 6, and they have learnt about a range of different types of dance from tap to Irish dancing.  Recently they have been practicing a contemporary dance, and this morning they performed it in front of the school.  They all really enjoy taking part, and they received some fabulous feedback from their peers.

There are spaces for after half term, and so if your child would like to join and are in Year 2 or above, then please email careclub@brownclee.shropshire.sch.uk to book your child’s place with Mrs Steph Boxall, our Extended Schools Coordinator.

Just a quick reminder, that there is no Well Done Assembly tomorrow.

We have been informed this afternoon that Kath is unable to hold the Creative Arts After School Club tomorrow and she sends her apologies for this. If you require your child to go into Care Club please contact Mrs Boxall on the Care Club e-mail address.
