A note from the Principal
This is our last newsletter of the academic year, and that leaves only one thing to say – thank you.
Thank you to our students for the enthusiasm, kindness and determination they bring to school each day. Thank you to our parents for your continued partnership, trust and support throughout the year. And thank you to our incredible staff, whose care, commitment and professionalism make such a difference to the lives of our children every single day.
Wishing the Patana community a wonderful end of term and a brilliant summer break when it arrives!

Online Chat Groups and the Parent Code of Conduct
It is always helpful to pause before posting on a LINE group or similar.
Any queries, especially when new class lists are shared, should be shared with the class teacher.
We sometimes see comments being shared on line groups that refer to children by name.
This causes significant distress to families. If you read a comment that clearly breaches the Parent Code of Conduct, please post a helpful reminder that parents should go through the correct channels.
The school asks that parents do not breach confidentiality by sharing information about another family or student, except with Patana staff. This includes making comments about another family or student via social media or messaging platforms.
Class lists - August 2026
New class lists will be sent out in the final week of Term 3.
You will be able to click on the link in the letter hear a welcome message from their new teacher.
If you child is currently in Year 1, Year 3, or Year 5, there are no changes to their existing class.
If your child is currently in Nursery, FS1, FS2, Y2 or Y4, they will be placed in a newly mixed class.
Most children will be pleased and excited, but some may feel worried when they see their new class list.
Some will have hoped to be placed with a particular friend - and will expect you to fix the problem for them.
Please support your child in dealing with any initial disappointments, and share any ongoing worries with their new class teacher.
Our teachers are very skilled at helping children to build a new, cohesive class identity.
Polite Request
We politely ask that you do not bring presents into school site to give out to the class.
Although a kind gesture, gifts can cause upsets and disrupt the start of the school day.
Most gifts are quickly discarded - and edible gifts are particularly problematic for schools.
The best gifts that we can give children is to model kindness, grace and curiosity.
We want their friendships to be based on mutual respect and liking - and these are the best gifts of all.
