Parkland Post - Friday 12th July 2024

Welcome to the penultimate Parkland Post of the school year!  If I thought last week was busy, then this week has been a rollercoaster!  We have had a super week of class assemblies and the end of year Y6 performances of Peter Pan.  I have been incredibly impressed by the way all of our pupils have learnt their lines, delivered them perfectly and succeeded together. 

Year 6

We were so proud of our Year 6 pupils who received their SATS results this week.  The results were testament to how hard they have worked leading up to the tests.  Next Friday, our Year 6 will be having their Leavers' Assembly (straight after our normal Celebration Assembly) where they will receive their Leavers' Books so they can collect signatures as well as being able to sign their shirts.  At 3pm, they will have their Leaver's Parade in the KS2 playground.

Peter Pan

Year 6 made us walk the plank this week with their end of year performance Peter Pan.  They were absolutely amazing and delivered their lines clearly, worked well together and had us singing along with their showtunes!  Thank you to everyone who came to join us for the performances and thank you to Mrs Peacock and Mrs Flaherty for the buffet before Tuesday's evening performance. 

 

Attendance Matters

Our Whole School attendance has been low this week at 87.3%, please try to have your child in school every day and on time so they don't miss any learning.  The class with the highest attendance is Year 6 with 92.1% attendance.  They had a spin on the Attendance Wheel and won an extra playtime; well done!

End of Year Reports and Optional Parents' Evening 

Your child's end of year report will be sent out on Tuesday next week.  There will be an optional drop in Parents' Evening on Wednesday 17th July between 3:30-4:30 should anyone need to speak about their child's report to the class teacher.  There will be a feedback sheet contained within the envelope.  Please can you fill that in and return to school as your opinions are very important to us and help us to shape what goes on at Parkland.  Every feedback sheet returned will have a raffle ticket entered into our end of year draw to win £50. 

Sports Day - Wednesday 17th July 

Our Sports Days will be taking place on Wednesday 17th July.  Reception and KS1 will have their events from 9:30am and KS2 (Years 3-6) will have their events from 1:30pm.  We would love it if you could come and join us - we hope the weather will be kind to us too.

School Disco - Thursday 18th July

Our school discos are taking place on Thursday the 18th of July.  Nursery, Reception, Years 1 and 2 will have their disco from 4:30-5:15pm (Parents must stay with their child) and the KS2 Disco (Years 3-6) will take place 5:30-6:15pm.    

And finally...

We hope you have a fabulous weekend, whatever you decide to do.  Mrs Wierzbianski is going shopping in Leeds and attending a dance show, Mr Watson , Ms Pascoe and Mrs Shirra going out for a meal with friends. We will see you bright and early on Monday morning where our doors will open at 8:40am ready for learning to begin at 8:45am.
