To contribute to our whole-school approach to mental health we employ trained counsellors from Place2Be. This enables us to provide mental health support in school through one-to-one support and group counselling. Place2Be is in school two days a week.

Place2Be would like to invite any families to sign upfor free to Parenting Smart – Online Course. This 4-week self-paced programme offers tools to support children’s wellbeing and help them deal with childhood challenges.

The deadline to register is 2nd November: https://www.place2be.org.uk/family/book

Dear Parents/Carers,

We are coming to the end of a very busy half term and I would like to thank you for your support.  

Thank you for – Getting your child to school on time every day.
Thank you for – reading with your child and encouraging reading.

Dear Parents/Carers,

A BIG apology to our new Reception parents. Our Parentmail system has not included you in all the September Headteacher updates. Please accept my apologies. We hope the problem has now been fixed.

Dear Parents/Carers,

I hope that the first week in school has gone smoothly for you.

A matter of concern for us is the safety of ‘morning procedures.’ The current route through the door on the narrow path is congested and we have concluded that it is unsafe for the volume of traffic. We want to make some interim (pending further discussion ) changes to where children come into school in the morning.

Dear Parents/Carers,

Morning 8.30am Entrance to School

I am writing mainly to clarify the morning routine. Coming straight into school at 8.30am makes for a good start. Please can I respectfully request that parents/carers do not come into school. Please parents/carers step back to allow your child to get in rather that blocking the door itself. Please can I also add that if your child is upset – for any reason or still finding the morning separation a struggle can you come to the front entrance or alert us by email so that we can put something in place where we meet you in the playground. Sometimes settling after a long holiday takes time – we can help if we know. This stops a problem at the door.

Dear Parents/Carers,

It was lovely to see so many of you at Kirkstall Festival on Saturday. As always, Beecroft turned out in full and were by far the best represented of all schools. Well done to all the prize winners and thank you for your support.
