A note from Mrs McCormack (Primary Principal):
Dear Parents,
We are delighted to have all our students back after their mid-term break this week. It has been a busy, albeit short, week, with some exciting events such as a visit from musicians from Oundle School in the UK, preparations for the Solo festival, and the hosting of a conference with the renowned educational researcher, Dylan Wiliam.
As we look forward to Term 1B, we are revisiting what creates a healthy learning environment at Patana. Over the next few weeks, we'll be exploring "what makes us special" within our educational setting, and we've assigned a video project to our students for this purpose. We encourage your child to participate by submitting a video – these will be featured in upcoming assemblies. Furthermore, the year group with the most entries will earn an additional playtime!
Next Tuesday, we will be hosting a parent workshop introducing the developments in assessment and reporting. This is the 1st of 3 workshops dedicated to this topic and we hope to see you there.
Sarah McCormack

Junk Modelling Resources Required

General Information
Snacks before ECAs
Sometimes the students are hungry after a long day at school and before their ECA begins.
Teachers allow the students time at the end of the day to eat their snack if they need it.
Please make sure this snack is in their bag for them to eat independently without support.
If you wish to see your child before their ECA please email the class teacher in advance so they can hand them over to you whilst ensuring all other children are safely taken to their ECA providers.
Birthday celebrations
The following students are celebrating their birthdays this week...
Isobel (1P), Kin (1J), Charlie (1R), Corbin (1J), Ekas (1K) Felicia (1K) and Dudu (1P). A very big happy birthday to you all!
Reminder: We cannot give out party bags or gifts - please keep these for any sort of celebration that you do out of school.
If you would like to send in some birthday treats for your child to share with their class, please arrange a day with your child's class teacher. We will only be able to manage individual items like brownies, doughnuts, or cupcakes.
Please remember we are a nut-free Primary School and also check with the class teacher for any other dietary requirements of the class.
