CHANGE OF DATE
Our Summer Fair date has changed to
FRIDAY 8TH JULY 2016 - 2.00 to 4.00 PM.
The change has been made by the
Parents’ Association because more parent
volunteers are needed to help run the event.
If you can volunteer on Friday 8th , please see Sue
in the school office.
This school is committed to safeguarding and promoting the
welfare of children and expects all staff and volunteers to share
this commitment.
PARENT GOVERNOR ELECTION
Thank you to the parents who voted.
You have elected Ebenezer Oyeleye
and the school looks forward
to working with him.
CTK SCHOOL CHOIR
Following in the footsteps of Elton John, Ellie Goulding, Procul Harum,
Youssou N’Dour, Björk, Patti Smith, Kris Kristofferson and many more artists
who have featured in concerts at the Union Chapel in Islington over the last
few years, our school choir participated in the PURE VOICES concert on
Monday of this week.
Our children sang a beautiful rendition of Bob Marley’s
‘THREE LITTLE BIRDS’ and danced beautifully to the rhythm of the song.
We are very proud of our children’s choir.
They have been very committed to their singing
and have turned up for all the practices.
We are planning many more choir events next year.
Thank you and very well done children!
PERFORMANCE ARTS AT ITS BEST!
Year 4 Midsummer Night’s Dream
Our Year 4 children visited AMSI secondary school this week
to participate in a Shakespeare workshop. The children looked at the language of the
play A Midsummer Night’s Dream , participated in a hot seat activity pretending to be
one of the main characters and acted out lines from the play.
Your child’s new class for next year
On Monday 11th July, your child will meet the new class
teacher who will be teaching them next academic year.
As well as this, your child will have the opportunity to visit
their new classroom and do some fun activities with the new
teacher.
You will receive a letter with information about your child’s
new teacher and class.
NOTICE TO PARENTS
Please remember that taking photographs of children in school is not permitted.
This applies to taking photographs of children in the playground
or when on school trips.
We also ask parents/carers to refrain from posting photographs of other children
on social media, including Facebook. Please remember that there may be some
very valid reasons why some parents do not wish for their child’s image to be on
the internet.
If you do see images of Christ the King children taken whilst in school or on
school trips, please report it to the school so that we can ask the person
responsible to remove the photographs.
In addition, Facebook has an age limit. No child of primary school age should
have their own Facebook account. It is of huge importance that as a parent you
know what your child’s presence on social media is.
End of Year School Reports to Parents
Children will be given their end of year report
on Friday 1st July.
If your child does not bring home their report
please let the school office know.
Year 6 pupils will receive their SATS results in the first or second week of July.

NEW SCHOOL UNIFORM
Our new school uniform becomes compulsory in September 2017. To help
parents, we have stated that the next academic year 2016 –2017 will be a
transition year when both the old and new uniform can be worn. This is to
help parents replace items gradually and to give children time to grow out of
the current uniform they have.
If you are buying a new uniform for September 2016, we would advise you to
invest in the new uniform. This includes all uniform items such as PE kits
and school bags.
CORRECT SCHOOL UNIFORM SHOES
We have noticed that some children have been coming to school without the
correct school uniform, especially footwear.
Please note that children must wear black, sensible school shoes.
Trainers and boots are not permitted.
I understand that from September we will be changing the school uniform,
however, the rules around school shoes have not changed.
The rule is still the same and from September children will continue to be
expected to wear sensible black shoes- and not black trainers.
Please can you monitor your child’s footwear before they leave for school so
that you can be assured that they are meeting the uniform expectations.
