This week

Another hot but excellent week at St Cuthbert

Mayne! This week we have enjoyed Odd Sock Day,

Alice the Musical and my Headteachers Induction

Mass, as well as continuing with our school routines.

The majority of Year 6 have also attended their

Induction days at their new schools and have

returned with exciting news about what they are

looking forward to.

Thank you to the Year 6 team led by Mrs Bacon who

carried out an archaeological dig of the PE shed and

audited our PE equipment. At our School Council

Meeting this week, we discussed what the children

would like to spend the Sainsbury’s Active School’s

vouchers on as we have collected over 14,000!

Please remember that Thursday 13th July 3.30pm—6.pm is our Open Evening and a celebration of pupil

learning. This will also be an excellent opportunity for you to say thank you and goodbye to your child’s class

teacher. This is not a formal parents’ consultation evening but I will have a Head teacher's ‘Open Door’ drop

in session during this time.

Newsletter 38: Week ending 30th June 2017

Our new school entrance...

...is now open and is in operation. Well done the School Office Team who have shown huge resilience and

humour during the building works. Our next phase is to improve the appearance of the outside of the lobby

and make it more welcoming.

Thank you for bearing with us as we learn to operate two entrance doors and a new intercom system.

School places available for September 2017

It has been wonderful once again to welcome our new Reception Children into school this week for a longer

settling in session. We still have a limited number of spaces in year groups across the school, although some

Year groups are now full. If you know of anyone who would be interested in joining our school family then

please ask them to contact the school office to arrange a visit.

Alice the Musical

Wow! Well done to the Drama Club on your performance of

Alice the Musical this week. It was fantastic! You have all

worked so hard and it showed in your excellent

performances. I was lucky enough to see this three times

and I could still watch it again with great enjoyment. A huge

thank you to Miss Board who was both Producer and

Director of the show. She was ably assisted by: Musical

Director Miss Longmire, Props manager Miss Morrin, and

Chaperones Mrs Trawber, Mrs Bacon and Mrs Woodhams.

Bikehana 2017

Thank you to everyone involved for making Bikehana such a great success. The event was held last Sunday and over 100 cyclists took part in events such as the obstacle course. The weather was fantastic and lots of money was raised. Thank you especially to Mr Worthington who organised and ran the whole day. Please can all sponsorship money be sent into school office by MONDAY 10th July in a named envelope.

water bottles in school during the hot

New Headteacher’s Induction Mass

Thank you to all those who were able to

attend my Headteacher’s Induction Mass

yesterday. It was a very special event and I

was delighted that members of my own family

were also able to attend as well as

representatives from the Diocese and Local

Authority, Governors, Parishioners, Parents,

past and present staff and most importantly-

the children. A special thank you to Fr. David

for leading the Mass and also to Miss Loveder

who sang the psalm for us.
