Crestwood Park Primary School

Thank you all for your patience and understanding on Monday when we had to close the school. We look for every possible solution before making a decision to send children home as we know it can cause real inconvenience for families. We really appreciate your support at these times- thankyou! ****Just as a reminder, we will always use Sch.Life messages to notify parents of a school closure.***

We are delighted to announce that we raised a staggering £300.00 following the sale of poppies and various merchandise items; the Poppy Appeal have sent a lovely thank-you card and are sincerely grateful for the funds raised as without your help, they would not be able to continue their vital welfare and benevolent work. Thank-you.

For any children that missed the Nasal Flu Vaccination clinic on 13th November, the catch-up clinic will be held on Thursday 9th January 2020. A letter will be sent out via the children with the relevant consent forms which will need to be completed accordingly; not returning a consent form is not a clear indication as to whether you want your child/children to have the vaccine, thank-you. 

Just a little reminder that if your child is joining us for our movie night, please bring children via the main front entrance at 4:50pm - films will be finishing between 6:45pm and 7pm. Don't forget children can wear their PJ's and remember to bring a blanket and pillow...Oh and do not forget that popcorn and a drink is included in the cost of the ticket. We look forward to seeing you all.

Next week's Running club, Thursday 5th December - will be the last for this term. We are celebrating with a Santa Run! If your child attends running club, please send them equipped with a santa hat!
