A full week in school has flown by and it was wonderful to end it with a jam packed ABC assembly. Well done to all the recipients of awards- we not only had our Achievement, Behaviour and Commitment role models but it is also clear that we have some very talented mathematicians, dancers and swimmers to name just a few. Our brightness and generosity was also on display this week as the children dashed around our track in support of Muscular Dystrophy on Monday. Across school, our Local Area Study is well under way and parents, you will be able to view all of the children's learning at our exhibition- due to be held later on in the term. Our next invitational event to parents is our Sports Morning- this takes place just after half term- read on for more details! 

We would like to say a very big HAPPY BIRTHDAY to...Evelyn, Alisha, Dominic, Kayden, Riley and Dakotah who have celebrated their birthday this week or will be celebrating over the weekend.

We hope you all enjoyed Dashing for Duchenne's!

Together we raised: £185.00!

Thank you to Evie-May, Elsie and Jack for sending us your sunflower pictures! You are looking after them very well indeed!

Before the end of term, we will then ask children to show us the progress they have made and prizes will be awarded for our budding gardeners.

Once again, we are using The Dell Stadium for our Sports Day.

Things you need to know:

--> On Thursday the 8th June, please take children directly to The Dell Stadium for normal registration time of 8.50am.

--> Children must go to The Dell Stadium dressed in their P.E kit, and will remain in their kit for the rest of the day.

--> Don't forget your child's water bottle, and please make sure it is named!

--> Fruit will be provided by the school at The Dell Stadium during the break but you can provide your own if you wish.

--> Please be mindful of the weather! HOT = Sunhat/Caps, Sun Cream, Shorts COLD = Coat, Fleece/Jumper, Joggers 

--> Children will return to school in time for lunchtime. So please don't forget to book dinners or send sandwiches as normal.

--> Reception parents ONLY: Please complete the form to let us know who will be accompanying your child on the walk back to school.

A letter will be sent home with more information on - please make sure that you have read the letter and if you have any additional questions, speak to a member of staff. 

We were saddened that our Forest school sessions had to cease this term, due to circumstances out of our control.

However, we now have a plan moving forward. Mr Barnett is going to be undertaking the Outdoor Learning Level 3 Qualification in the Autumn term, which will mean we will have a qualified Forest School Leader to take our sessions!

So, we can confirm that Forest School will recommence after half term in October.

We are delighted that we will be able to continue to offer Forest School as part of our Crestwood Park Primary curriculum in the near future and thank you for your patience and understanding in the meantime.

5p Friday's are proving very successful! Every class is now well on the way to saving enough for their planned prize.

We will continue to ask for each child to bring in a 5 pence piece on a Friday. The children will take charge of counting the money and calculating how much more they need to reach their goal.

The  challenge is to raise enough in order to be able to pay for their chosen reward. Please ask your children what their class are saving towards!

This will be a fantastic opportunity for each class to know the importance of budgeting, saving and spending!

There is no obligation for you to contribute, but it would be greatly appreciated!

As before, we will be holding an End of Term Sweet Stall on Friday 26th May to reward all of your hard work this term!

Prices will range from 10p - £1.00.

As I sign off this week, my message echoes the advice we have given our children during this Mental Health Awareness week.

Please remember, no matter how big or small a worry- you always have your Crestwood Park Family for support and in the words of Bobby McFerrin...

"Don't worry, be happy
In every life we have some trouble
But when you worry, you make it double
Don't worry, be happy
Don't worry, be happy now.."

Safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children is the responsibility of everyone in our school and at all times we consider what is in our children's best interests. We work to ensure our children our safe and cared for and by doing this we are protecting their health and development and preventing them from harm.  If we are worried, we will raise concerns, share information and take prompt action with the aim of ensuring families receive the right help at the right time.
