The term is now well underway and it is feeling more like Autumn.  Everyone in school has been very busy. Last week children in KS1 enjoyed sports week and were able to try different activities. Year 2's enjoyed their Victorian days at Stibbington too.

ATTENDANCE

Sadly some children are missing out on all the exciting things in and out of school by having a number of days off school. We are monitoring attendance and some families will be receiving letters this week, where attendance has fallen below 95%. Whole school attendance for September was 93.99% which we are working hard to improve.

ROAD SAFETY

We continue to ask parents to help keep our children safe on Queen's Drive West by NOT parking on the Zig Zag markings outside school.  

 

PACKED LUNCHES

Queen's Drive Infant School holds a Healthy School status, and so we are committed to healthy living and learning.  You are reminded that packed lunches bought into school should be healthy and balanced.

They SHOULD NOT contain crisps or multiple chocolate items. 

Thank you for your support with this request.

 

PLEASE LABEL YOUR CHILDREN'S CLOTHES

Please remember to ensure that your children's clothes are named!  Lost items cannot be returned to their owner if they are not named.

 

DATES FOR YOUR DIARIES

Monday 10 October 2022 - Mental Health Awareness Day
