Midday supervisors

We are still looking to expand our Midday Superviser team. If you have an hour to spare, even if only one day a week, then please see Mrs Adderley in the Office.

Head lice

We have had a couple of incidences of headlice in school. Please can you check you child's hair regularly and treat if necessary.

Play Space Evaluation

We have received the following message from the County Play Strategy Project Officer:

As you may or may not be aware, Cambridgeshire County Council has recently been running the Cambridgeshire Play Pathfinder project to develop and redevelop children's play areas across the County.

The play space local to you [at Barton Recreation Ground] was one of the 33 sites fortunate enough to be transformed through the Pathfinder project's funding and the hard work of the local community.

A priority in evaluating the sites is to establish the views and opinions of the children and young people using the play spaces - those for whom this project has been for.

Children & Young Persons Survey & Competition

The County Council have compiled an online survey and competition for children and young people (17 years and younger) to complete, with three prizes of £50 worth of vouchers to be won.

The survey can be accessed via: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/NBFLKW7

Parents & Adults Survey

In addition we will be looking to find out the opinions of the play space from parents and other adults (18 years and above) in the community from another online survey.

There will be one further prize of £50 worth of vouchers to be won: http://forms.cambridgeshire.gov.uk/customer/servlet/ep.app?type=393278&ut=x

Both surveys are available in paper format on request.

Please contact Ashley List, County Play Strategy Project Officer at the earliest opportunity by email at ashley.list@cambridgeshire.gov.uk should you have any queries with regards the survey, the evaluation or the project.

Parent Partnership Evening

Come along to our Parent Partnership Evening - on Wednesday 8 September at 7pm - and find out all you need to support your child. Find out about the class routines, curriculum focus, expectations and meet the staff that will be working with your child this year. Members of the FOBS Committee will be on hand to provide refreshments and chat to parents.

There will also be an introductory talk by Sally Elding from the ICT Service about STARZ, Cambridgeshire's ICT Learning Platform that we use in school, which children can access from home to support their learning.

Don’t miss out on this valuable opportunity to support your child’s learning.
