Welcome to the final Parkland Post of the half term which is being written in glorious sunshine as we begin our half-term holidays. We have been so lucky this week with the weather as we took part in our Sponsored Daily Mile; thank you to everyone who has pledged money to raise funds for our PTA and to everyone who came to join us for our special circuit this morning.
Welcome to this week’s Parkland Post (Part 1), we hope you have enjoyed the weekend and that you have managed to bask in the sunshine! We have a busy final week with KS1 still working on their SATS and our Year 6 pupils continuing with their writing so its’ really important that they are in school every day and on time.
Welcome to this week’s Parkland Post! We have certainly had a busy week in our academy, even though it has only been 4 days. Our Year 6 pupils have done us and themselves proud working incredibly hard completing their SATS papers, showing resilience and having the chance to show off their knowledge.
Welcome to this week’s Parkland Post. I wanted to start by saying how proud the staff are of our Year 6 pupils who completed their SATS this week – they showed just how resilient and mature they all are. We will still be focusing on writing over the next few weeks so please make sure your child is in school every day.
Next week, we will be having Rainbow Week where we are celebrating diversity, equality, and the freedom to be who we want to be! On Friday 20th May, we are having an Express Yourself Day where you can come to school in non-uniform. The kitchen team are also going to be doing a special rainbow themed lunch.
Our delicious new lunch menus are now live on the school meals website. It runs on a three weekly basis. The link can be found below so you can see which meals your child can enjoy each day (just remember to select Co-op Academy Parkland).
Our Parents’ Evenings will take place on Wednesday 18th May 3-6pm and Thursday 19th May 3-4:30pm.
Slips will be sent out which show which date and time you need to attend.
Don’t worry if you didn’t request an appointment, one has been made for you by Mrs Murgatroyd so you come in and have a chat about your child’s progress.
This afternoon, we had a fabulous parent event with Years 3 and 4. They have been working over the last two weeks on the brief, design and have finally been able to get stuck in to making their masks. Keep a look out for the photos which will follow on our social media pages. Thank you to everyone who was able to come in to support – we hope you had as much fun as the children did!
This weekend, as part of this half term’s skill ‘Staying Positive’, the weekend challenge is this:
Welcome to this week’s Parkland Post and what an amazing week it has been! Don’t forget that Monday 8th May is another Bank Holiday, so we will be open again on Tuesday 9th May. Thank you to everyone who came to our Coronation Picnic and for the effort you have put in making the crowns which were incredible! Well done to our Crown Parade winners; the School Council had such hard decisions to make.
We would like to wish all of our Year 6 children the best of luck for next week’s SATs, you have done the hard work, and now is your time to shine. SATs Breakfast is from 8:15 am in the Year 6 classroom – we will see you there.
We had our very first PTA meeting this week and we are very excited about our upcoming events for our Parkland community!
