I like what you have done and how you have done it. I think
the best bit are the pictures of our class which keep on going on top of each other. The best pitcure is me and Kyle making the Celtic war chariot.
Thankyou for putting the website on

Is there anyway to view the slide show, for the Pink Day, other than on the website, as it goes quite fast, and I can’t seem all the the photos?

thanks

A HUGE well done to all of the staff and children who were involved with the school Pantomime in 2007.

To all the pupils - you were all fantastic and it was by far the best primary school performance that I have been to see!

You are all stars and I will look out for you on the stage or on the television in years to come!

With regards to the section on the newsletter about indoor shoes, I’ve not been aware of this, so is this just gym shoes, or do you prefer trainers?
Thanks

I just wanted to congratulate the person, who came up with the idea, of allowing parents a whole week in which to pay for milk money.
I used to find it a challange, trying to remember to pay for it by a specific time, on just one specific day and know of a few children, who missed out on their milk because of the strick time scale.
Having a few days to remember now, will be so much easier.
Thank you,
Yvonne Stewart.

I am totally disappointed in the fair trade sweatshirts.I don`t think they are good quality and will be surprised if they last the year.In the past they have been of good quality and could be passed on to other children in fact my daughter says they are itchy to wear. I just hope i am not the only person disappointed and in future we go back to the other supplier.

I totally agree with the above post about the Fair Trade sweatshirts.
Having bought the old sweatshirts for the past 8 years in a row, I know the quality of the new sweat shirts is no where as good as the old ones.
I always buy my children 2 new jumpers a year and the old jumpers were durable enough to last all this time.
However, just one month after school has begun, the Fair Trade jumpers are loosing their shape, feel stiff and have dark streaky marks on them. I have heard other parents make the same comments about the marks, so I know it is not just an accident with my washing machine.
They are washed along with my eldest sons high school jumpers and while his jumpers and lovely and soft, these one’s feel hard.
While I am all for supporting Fair Trade, I wouldn’t be prepared to spend my money on them next year.

Also, I think your idea of sending out one newsletter to each family is great as I try to be eco friendly myself.
However, I was wondering how this will affect the ‘News letter Draw’. Both my sons like to enter their names into the draw by returning the stub on the news letter containg the
questions.
Do I put both childrens names on the stub, therefore having them share the prize if they won, or are they to take turns putting their names on and reduce their individual chances of winning?
I think the ‘draw’ is a great idea but was wondering how it could be made fair to all the children.
