Crestwood Park Primary School

Please note that this week was the last Running Club until Thursday . It will resume on Thursday 9th November. Thursday of next week is our Parents' Evening and there no clubs run during the first week back after any holiday. See you all again on 9th!

We are really pleased to announce that the Mayor of Dudley will be joining Dudley Catering Services representatives to judge the Bake Off being held on Friday 20th October.

Dudley Catering Services have also been very generous and donated many fabulous prizes for the winners.

So get your apron on and Get Baking!

As you are probably aware the old £1 coins are ceasing to be legal tender on 15th October. As such we cannot accept them in school after this date. Please ensure that if you are making cash payments to school, that includes coins, only new £1 coins are sent.

Mr Barnett is running this half term holiday club on Monday 23rd October at a cost of only £10 for a whole day of activities. Places have gone really quickly and there are very few left so please be quick and book your space as soon as possible to avoid disappointment. It promises to be a fun-filled action packed day.

Can we respectfully remind parents that bad language around children is really not acceptable. We have again received complaints that several parents are - maybe unintentionally - using swear words in general conversation when walking around, and near to the school grounds. While it is not for us to tell anyone what to say, we would appreciate it if everyone could refrain from using any bad language on school property.

Can we also request that everyone refrain from smoking at the school gates. This practice leaves a plume of smelly smoke that all others have to walk through to get onto our school site. We would appreciate it if smoking could be done a little distance from the gates. Thank you for your support with these matters.

If you have any old shirts which you are throwing out or just outgrown can we ask that you send them into school please. Year One are asking for them to wear during painting sessions, to protect their uniform. Thank you.

Another plea, this time for any old pots and pans for Reception class. And also old food crates i.e. bread, veg etc. They would like to enhance their mud kitchen and these items would be very much appreciated. All of these add to the fun for our children. Thank you.
