Issue 17 - Friday 19 January 2024


Dear Families

Our new Systematic Synthetic Phonics programs are in place across the school. You will see a change in some of the books your child brings home over the coming months, and please look out for parent / carer / family training sessions for those of you who want to learn more about how to support your child with phonics and reading at home. A few of you have mentioned to me that your child sometimes doesn't bring a reading book home. Please communicate with their Form Tutor, as they will be able to help you with this.

For those of you who haven't toured the new school, or who would like to come back and see the library and other developments, we would love to see you on one of our monthly tours.  Please book in via our reception team.
 
Best wishes to you all.
 
Kind regards

Mrs J Rigby
Headteacher

Request for Clothing Donations

First, I would like to thank the Meadow community for the ongoing donations of uniform.  It is much appreciated. 

Please may I make a further request?   If you have any trousers or dark-coloured jogging bottoms you no longer require, we would greatly appreciate them. 

Thank you.
