Les Landes annual Easter Egg design competition

As Easter approaches, we would like to invite all children to decorate a boiled egg and bring this into school on Friday 4th April.  Last year we had characters, themes and lots of imagination!  The eggs will be judged by House Captains and there will be a prize for each class and a family prize. £2 entry on ParentPay. Good luck!

Parent Forum Wednesday 2nd April 6pm

UNCRC Article 3,5,29

Agenda attached   download.asp

The meeting will be held in Y6 and all parents are welcome. The meeting should last one hour.

Easter Holiday Scavenger Hunt

The fundraising group have put together a fun scavenger hunt around St Ouen, for families to have a go at during the holiday. It's a 2.5km flat route from school which can be walked / cycled and is suitable for pushchairs.  If you would like to enter, please pay the entry fee of £2.50 on ParentPay, and we will print the questions and give them to your child on the last day of term.  All entries submitted on the first day back will be entered into a prize draw after the holidays. It's one entry per child and children form other schools can enter. Thank you to Mrs Perkins and Mrs Belcher for planning this.

School News app

Don't forget, this app gives you direct access to our latest news, gallery photos and the calendar which will sync with your smartphone calendars. Details here:  Les Landes School - School News App

Liberation 80

The school's plans to mark 80 years of Liberation will be shared and agreed at School Forum and we will write to you next week with details.

A request for games from School Council

School Council would like to request games for Breakfast Club and wet playtimes.  They need to be suitable for more than one player and not have any pieces missing. If there are games you no longer play, please can you consider donating them to our school.  Thank you.

Ketchup!

If children would like ketchup with their hot lunch, they can bring an individual sachet or pot. As with all food, children cannot share.

Lost property

All unnamed items collected this term will be disposed of at the end of next week.  Please pop in if you are missing anything.  There are brand new uniform pieces, lots of snack boxes and a few random things!
