** If your child attends before school or after school club, or any extra-curricular clubs on either Monday or Tuesday, and you cannot arrange transport to suit these times as a result, then please contact me to let me know and I will arrange this by either picking them up/dropping them off myself or asking another staff member to help.

Important:

• All children will require a packed lunch and plenty of drinks on Monday and Tuesday whilst at Bablake School.
• They are to arrive wearing their school PE kit on Monday and Tuesday.
• Please remind them to bring any bits of costume they need from home (footwear, socks, etc) with them in the day.
• Children can bring a book to read whilst waiting in the wings.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me via email [email protected] or alternatively leave a message at school and I will get back to you as soon as possible.

‘Thread a daisy chain’   

As a reward for contributing to what has been a fantastic year, we have organised a trip for Year 6 to be tourists in London on Friday 12th July 2019. This is another exciting opportunity to make a few more memories as a class before the end of their time at All Souls’. Our day out as tourists will involve travelling to and from London by minibus, catching a tube into the centre of London, hopping on and off an open-top bus tour to see some of London’s most famous sights, eating our packed lunches in one of London’s many parks and a visit to pose with lots of famous people in Madam Tussaud’s!

It will be an early start (aiming to depart school at 6.30am) and a late return (approximately 9pm) as we have lots to fit in! Timings and further details will be confirmed closer to the time. The cost of this trip is in excess of £40pp; however, we understand that school trips and events are costly at this time of year. Therefore, as it is their last trip here at All Souls’, we are making a substantial contribution reducing the total amount payable to £22 per child.

Children will need to wear their school tracksuit and appropriate footwear. Each child should bring a small rucksack in which they can carry a waterproof coat, refillable water bottle, snacks for throughout the day and a packed lunch for our picnic in the park. Due to being out all day, the children will end their day with a trip to McDonald’s (included in the total price) before returning home. Children are invited to bring with them some spending money to buy souvenirs (we recommend approximately £10 but this is at your discretion and the responsibility of each child).

Furthermore, every good tourist needs a good camera so children are welcome to bring a camera or their phone with them to take endless selfies. However, if your child chooses to bring their phone, this would be at their own risk. Please also be aware that they would be asked to put them on airplane mode as they would not be allowed to use them for any form of communication throughout the day.

Finally, I apologise for the late notice; as I am sure you are aware, it has been a busy few weeks in Year 6. I kindly ask you to complete the consent form and make payment via Sims Agora no later than Monday 1^st July 2019.

Thank you for your continued support! 🙂

Year 6 are taking part in the Wildlife Trust’s 30 days wild which began this week. So far we have got closer to nature by taking our shoes and socks off and feeling the grass between our toes, gazing at the clouds whilst trying to spot any shapes we could see and hunting for minibeasts! We are looking forward to seeing what other random acts of wildness we have in store for the rest of June.

Congratulations to those in Year 6 who received the Sacrament of Confirmation today. The service was beautiful and reverent and it was lovely to see so many friends and family support them in taking this next step of their faith journey.

May the strength of the Holy Spirit continue to guide you on your paths.

What a fabulous afternoon ‘Speed-Sainting’!

Thank you to each and every person who came to support Year 6 in their prepararation for receving the Sacrament of Confirmation this weekend. It was fantastic to listen to the children talk so confidently about their chosen saint and really was such a valuable experience for them all.
