Dear Parents,

We thoroughly enjoyed our collective worship time together last Friday afternoon. See photos on the next page. Now the weather is warmer, we hope to do this every week. Sharing our achievements as a school community has always been important to us. It is a way in which we can share each other’s successes across the classes and congratulate eve- ryone. Our older children can become role models to the younger members of our school and aspire to what they have achieved.

In time, we hope to include you all in these, weather permitting and socially distanced.

Have a lovely weekend.

Sarah Cottee The Robins Class 1 Class 2 Class 3 Today we have been enjoying ‘Number Stars Albie Belle Jensen Izzy Day’ in aid of the Arthur Arwen Josie NSPCC.

House Points Ash Chestnut Oak Willow Thank you for your support. 94 78 99 91 PTA News Thank you very much to those who supported the PTA at last week’s wine tasting event. Mary and Paul (Fine Wines of Mayfield) were so knowledgeable about their wines and shared this with all of us in such a relaxed and fun way. Fair to say that we enjoyed the actual tasting part too!! We raised £120 from the event. Thank you so much to Laura Sargeant for helping to organise the event for us—it’s very much appreciated.

ACL Community and Family Learning provide FREE group support and learning opportunities for parents and par- ents with their children across .

We have some sessions on offer that we thought might benefit your families.

A chance to have some fun making a coastal collage - Delivered face to face at ACL Maldon, Carmelite Way, Maldon Tuesday 11th and Thursday 13th May, 9:30-11:30am

FREE creative session to inspire you. These two sessions are aimed at parents/carers with their pre- school children, although all ages are welcome. The first session we will look at how we can make the most of a walk along the coast, river or canal, think about the sort of items we might find, look at some collages, make something to take home, and finish with a story. Hopefully you will be able to take a walk and find some bits over the following week, or if not, find some bits you can use, ready for the second week to make your collage.
