A musical afternoon

Parents 4 Schools Online Payment Guide for Parents

We have a new online payment system through Shropshire Council for parents to make payments from their bank cards or by PayPal directly to us.

Payments can be made for school dinners, visits, fundraising events, wraparound care………virtually anything we ask for payments for!

Every family should receive letters today with instructions on how to use the system (instructions also attached to this page) along with each child’s unique payment reference.

We hope parents find this a valuable system. However if you have any queries or problems using the system please contact a member of the office staff or use the ‘contact us’ tab on the council pages or the council telephone number for additional help out of normal school hours.Parent 4 Schools (P4S) Parent User Guide

World Book Day is on its way!

World Book Day will be celebrated nationally on Thursday 7th March. We will be holding a series of book related events for pupils to share our love of reading. On Friday 8th March, children (and staff) can come into school dressed as a book character.

Here’s a link to the World Book Day website, which has some great ideas for easy to put together costumes:

A full day of fun!

Today we have had a visit from Mrs Perry who told us about her job in the hospital. We have also been having lots of fun in the snow!

A visit from PC Alan Ambrose

 

Hawkstone and Nursery enjoyed a visit from a Police man today. He told us all about his job and showed us the Police car. We loved listening to the siren and watching the flashing lights. We asked him lots of questions and many of the children told him they want to be Police officers when they grow up. The children are really enjoying learning about people who help us and are looking forward to their next visitor.

A visit from Reverend Becky

The children enjoyed a visit from Reverend Becky today. They learnt about the Christmas story and learnt a song about Jesus. They all listened beautifully and had lots of questions to ask.
