A SENSATIONAL year with Skylarks!

A message to Skylarks... 

It's a strange way to end the year but it doesn't change how truly proud I am of each and every one of you! It has been a year we will never forget, filled with so many marvellous moments and memories! We have learnt together, smiled together and laughed together! I hope you have all had the best time in year 3 and I know you are all going to be super stars in year 4! Enjoy your summer holidays and I will see you in September!

xoxo Miss Wyatt

This isn’t how I wanted to end this year with you Skylarks but I want to wish you all the luck in the world for year 4, you will all be amazing. Thank you for making me smile and laugh daily. It has certainly made the tough year we have had easier for me. I am going to miss all of you loads and please remember to say hello when you see me in school. Take care and enjoy your summer holiday.

See you in September, love from Miss Bradley.

Summer Hamper Raffle Draw

The draw for the Summer Hampers took place today. We had a fantastic contribution making up all the the prizes you see below and thanks to all of you who contributed and also bought tickets. We have raised over £400! Quite an achievement considering the disruption we are all facing at the moment. Winners are being contacted to collect their prizes over the next few days.

Thanks to the PTA (...and the PTA bubbles children!) for making sure the draw was carried out fairly!

Free Holiday Clubs for Eligible Pupils

The national HAF (Holiday and Food) scheme in Southampton are offering families free holiday activities for pupils who are eligible for Free School Meals.  The provision will offer each eligible pupil, 4 hours a day, 4 days a week and for 4 weeks of the summer. A total of 16 sessions per pupil (on a first come first served basis). They have got a huge range of activities from sports, to art and crafts, to the ski slope, football skills and lot more.

To register, parents/carers need to log into the HAF site and register themselves and their child/ren. This pre-registration can be done NOW and from next Monday (19^th July) parents will be able to select what provision they wish to sign their child up for.

 

Eligibility will be done through an internal verification process, to establish which pupils qualify for FSM and then each eligible child will be allocated their 16 credits. (This does not include the universal offer of FSM).

For further information, please visit the HAF website: HAF Southampton

Support During School Holidays

As we approach the school holidays, I just wanted to remind parents/carers that Early Help and the Sure Start Centres are still available during this time if you need support.  Early Help can support families with a range of concerns, or identify other services that can help including: children's behaviour, financial worries, food vouchers, health and getting back into work.  As a school, we are able to refer families; however, parents can also self refer.  There is information on Early Help and other useful website links on our school website:

Skylaks have had the most SENSATIONAL week!

Between Sports Day, a sponsered obstacle race and creating our own healthy sandwiches, it is safe to say Skylarks were VERY busy last week! I am so proud of how well they have worked together, trying their very best and working incredibly well as a team!
