MANOR FIELD INFANT AND NURSERY

SCHOOL NEWS LETTER 10th SEPTEMBER 2010

Welcome Back
Welcome back to school if you are returning and also welcome to all new children and parents. This weekly
newsletter is one way that we keep everyone informed of all that is happening in school. It will arrive home
each Friday either via your e-mail or as a paper copy if you do not have e-mail.
Birthday Assemblies
Each Friday we hold a Celebration Assembly where we celebrate the birthdays of children
during that week. Birthday assemblies are at 1:15pm on Fridays and all parents, carers and
younger siblings are welcome to attend. Parents are invited to join us for a birthday
assembly on Friday 17th September at 1.15pm for all children who have birthdays from 12th
September to 18th September inclusive.
Manor Field PTA Annual General Meeting
We will be holding our AGM on Tuesday 14th September at 7pm in the school hall. All parents and carers are
invited to attend. We are a friendly group of people and we are looking for more parents to come and join us.
It is a good way to get to know people and to help raise funds for you children while they are here at Manor
Field. We look forward to welcoming you.
Money Received in the office
Please note that all money that comes in to the office must be in a sealed envelope, marked with your child’s
name, class, the amount of money in the envelope and the purpose of the money e.g. lunch money, breakfast
club or trip money. Many thanks for your help in this matter.

difficult?
