Charvil Chatterings Park Lane, Charvil, RG10 9TR Telephone: 01189320033 Twitter @CharvilPrimary www.piggott.wokingham.sch.uk/primary Email: charvil@piggott.wokingham.sch.uk The Charvil Piggott Primary School Published on: 28th April 2017 Dear Parents and Carers, N o. 7 3 I hope you all had a relaxing and restful Easter break and thank you for your understanding with regards to our water and power issues on Tuesday. The term ahead is looking action-packed and exciting, with lots of wonderful learning opportunities for the children. As usual, we have published the topic web for each class on the school website if you would like to see what has been planned. Lunches Unless your child is bringing a packed lunch from home, please ensure that you book a lunch for each day that one will be required. Weather Hopefully, the weather will start to warm up over the next few weeks. Please ensure your child has a hat and a water bottle with them in school at all times. When it is appropriate, please apply sun cream to your child before school so they are protected for the day. Equipment A polite reminder please can you ensure that your children do not use the play equipment before or after school as it is to be used in school time only. I would also ask you to encourage your children to respect the furniture and equipment by not allowing them to stand on benches or climb through the Outdoor Classroom. Many thanks for your co-operation in this matter. Love to Learn Our next Love to Learn morning is booked for Friday 12 th May from 9.15 10.45 am. As usual, parents, carers and grandparents are welcome to work with the children in their classes and then the CPSA will provide refreshments in the hall from 10.15 10.45. Usborne books will be in attendance, there will be a uniform sale and lost property will be displayed at this time. We look forward to seeing as many of you there as possible. I hope you all have an enjoyable bank holiday weekend! Ms Louise May Deputy Headteacher (Charvil) Please remember WE ARE A NUT FREE SCHOOL We are a nut free school for the safety of all our staff and pupils. Please remember when packing home packed lunches or morning snack for Year 3 to check the labels on all foods, including chocolate spreads, and cereals bars.
