Parkland Post – 10 September
Welcome Back
We are thrilled to have everyone back in school and are incredibly pleased to report that attendance is at an all time high; we certainly are starting as we mean to go on! All of our pupils looked smart in their uniforms showing that they belong to our community.
Over the holidays, we have had our entire heating system replaced which means we will be toasty in the winter. Our site staff have worked tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure classrooms were ready for our pupils’ return.
Yesterday, Jet was in school to spend time with our pupils. He began the day in Breakfast Club and then had time with our KS2 pupils during their playtime where he enjoyed having the ball thrown. Next week, he will spend time with our KS1 pupils getting to know them and hopefully listening to some of them read. Following that, he will get to know our EYFS pupils so if any parents or carers wish for Jet to stay away from their child, please let us know. Jet is a cockapoo (a cross between a cocker spaniel and miniature poodle) and as a result, is hypoallergenic so is better for anyone who suffers from allergies to pet hair.

Uniform
You may recieve an ‘Oops’ uniform postcard from school if your child has had any incorrect uniform this week. Wearing a uniform shows we are all part of the school community and that we take pride in our appearance. Please be aware, uniform is grey and not black. Children will be asked to change where necessary. Children should not arrive to school in PE kit any longer on a Wednesday, please bring your kit to school with you. Thank you for your co-operation.
