Well-Being
Student Code of Conduct:
Over the next few weeks, your child will come home with a signed copy of the Student Code of Conduct. In class, we have reviewed this, and all students have chosen four trusted adults who they feel confident enough to speak to if they do not feel safe.
Please take some time to go through the code of conduct with your child.

holding auditions for the 'Junior' Company and the 'Senior' Company. These will

Year 5 Introduction to the Learning Meeting
Monday 26th August at 15:30 in the Year 5 shared area
This meeting will provide a brief overview of what to expect in Year 5.
Following a brief presentation, you are invited to visit your child’s classroom to meet the class teacher.
If you want to discuss your child’s needs in any detail, please make a separate appointment with the teacher.
Learning Theme: Space
During our first unit of learning we will explore the theme of Space.
For our Design and Technology learning we need to collect Junk for a Junk Modelling project.
If you have items at home such as boxes, toilet roll cylinders, plastic bottles, yoghurt pots that could be donated please could these be sent in with our students. Please ensure these are clean and washed. Thank you in advance for your support.
P.E
Welcome back to Primary PE! Please see the table below for activities, day and times of your child’s PE lessons for Unit 1.
Kit Reminders:
Swimming: Black swim costume, goggles, towel and swimming hat (for long hair). Long sleeve rash top optional.
Basketball: Patana PE Kit, socks, trainers/sports shoes and water bottle.
Your child has already met their PE teacher, but if you have any further questions please contact their PE teacher directly.
Birthdays
Nut free Primary School
For some children, any exposure to nuts is potentially very dangerous and can be life threatening.
We do not allow any nuts to be brought into Primary. This includes snacks on school transport, birthday treats and food items brought in for any other special days.
Some treats, such as macarons (see picture), contain hidden nuts. Please check the ingredients before sending into school. If snacks or birthday treats are found to contain nuts, we will contact you and either dispose of the food safely or ask you to collect and take back home.
Happy Birthday this week to...

Student Safeguarding at the end of the day
Going home by private transport: Y4 – Y6
All children should go home as soon as possible at the end of the school day and most meet a parent/carer outside their year group building or at one regular place throughout the year.
Y4-6 students waiting for a sibling should sign in at the Primary Library until it is time to meet their siblings and go home.
It is not safe for Primary students to leave the school premises unaccompanied to reach a vehicle parked further up the Soi. Please use our drop off and school parking zones.
Going home by school bus: Y4 – Y6
Most students are met on arrival by a parent or other trusted adult but we recognise that Y4-Y6 students are increasingly independent and ready to make their own way from the bus drop off to their home.
Going to a different location by school bus: All Primary Students
Primary students must be met by a parent/carer if going to another location that is not their home.
If there is no one to meet them at bus drop off, they will be driven back to Patana to await collection.
