Dear Parents and Carers, 

Following previous communications and letters sent home, this is a reminder that the MMR vaccinations are taking place at Stoke Primary School on Monday 11th March 8:45am - 12:30. 

If you have not completed your consent form yet, please do so today, or bring it with you on Monday morning to give to the class teacher or office.

This year there was an exciting twist on World Book Day as our dedicated teachers and staff members hid behind the masks and became "The Masked Readers"! inspired by the popular TV show, "The Masked Singer" to challenge our children, through reading!

🕵️‍♂️ Their task, was to watch the special 'Masked Reader' video created by our talented staff based on the book, "The Gruffalo" and to try to unravel who is was behind each mask. 

You can watch the video here! Can you work out who's behind the masks?

AFTERSCHOOL CLUBS FROM MONDAY 19^th February 2024 UP TO AND INCLUSIVE OF THURSDAY 14^TH March 2024.

Dear Parent / Carers,

We will be running the following FREE! clubs listed in the table below for the corresponding year groups only.  The clubs will run form week commencing Monday 19^th February 2024 till week ending Thursday 14^th March 2024.  The clubs start at 3.30 pm and finish at 4.15 pm.   There are limited spaces for each of the clubs.  We ask that you only select A MAXIMUM 2 CLUBS PER CHILD this will give greater opportunity for more children to attend our afterschool clubs.  The clubs will be visible on My child at school app from Wednesday 6^th February 2024 at 5pm.

We encourage children to sign up to the clubs available as it is great for their development and independence. It’s an opportunity to develop new skills and make new friends from other year groups.

Please note …

If your child is late being collected or does not attend tor two sessions, we will remove them from the afterschool club register. Children must be collected at 4:15pm, and if you are late to collect your child more than once your child may no longer be allowed to participate in after school clubs. How do I sign my child up to a club?  You will need to log in to the My Child at School app and go to the ‘Clubs’ section.  Although it will say £0 to pay, you still need to add to the basket and checkout.

The School Council children have worked with Mr McGarrity, Mr Pahal and Mrs Taylor to plant multiple new trees, donated by a local supplier, around the school grounds. 

The children worked in pairs to take turns digging, planting the stakes and planting the tree in the ground. 

The school council will be naming their trees next week, so they can check on their tree growth over their time at Stoke. 

We are all very excited to watch the trees grow with our children, through the seasons.
