Newsletter 08.03

A word from the Principal...
Dear Familieis,
It has been a busy few weeks since returning our last newsletter and we have been battling the
constant wind and rain to ensure that our learning is not constrained to the classroom. Even as we
speak, the children are racing their boats down the river, competing for the crown of Ludgvan Boat
Race Champion 2024! A big thank you to our Y5 children who braved the raging torrents to retrieve
boats that completed the course and in return, had some very cold and wet feet!
Thank you to those of you who have signed up to a consultation meeting with your child’s teacher.
These mid-year meetings are a great opportunity to talk about your child’s progress so far and what
will help them achieve their best by the end of the year.
Our Y5 children recently headed to London for their residential trip. They were incredibly busy and
some individuals accumulated 60,000 steps over the 3 days! Well done to all of the children who
represented our school so brilliantly and thank you to the staff and Governors who gave up their
time to make this wonderful trip possible.
Finally, you will have no doubt seen the huge importance that the Government are returning children’s
attendance to pre-pandemic levels. Below is a good graphic to show how attendance relates
to the number of days missed and the impact that lateness can have.
Kind regards,
Adam Anderson
principal
