Dear Parents
Well done to parents and pupils who have participated in the half-term reading challenge. Certificates and rewards will be presented on Friday 13 March 2015. Reading is a vital skill and we want to maintain its high profile. Our aim is that every child will be an excellent reader by the time they go to High School.
Thank you to parents who attended the reading meetings for Foundation Stage, Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2.
Exciting Development! Plans have been agreed by the governors, for the design and build of a new library which would be positioned next to the studio. FAB (Friends at Beecroft P.T.A) are planning a sponsored school field walk a money raising event on Thursday 2nd April to enable us to buy more books for the library.
Your views are important: Please share your views about the positives at Beecroft. If you do think something has gone wrong then let us know so that we can put it right. I am available after Family Assembly and will always return phone calls. Better to talk about it! Don’t hesitate!
