Can we remind all drivers who use the school car park before school to drop children off to Breakfast Club to drive slowly and considerately. There are two blind corners and only a single lane to access the car park. Recently there have been several reports of cars driving too fast and without due consideration of other drivers and pedestrians, including children, crossing the car park.
We appreciate that people have time pressures in the morning but if we are to continue to allow access to the school car park, safety to all must be assured.
Thank you for your co-operation with this.
Please can we remind parents / carers that, in accordance with our attendance policy, they are required to inform school of any pupil absence with a reason by 8.55am on the day of absence.
To make this more convenient, we have set up a new email address for this purpose: attendance@wormleyprimary.co.uk. Alternatively, our attendance telephone line can be used: 01992 303331 option 1.
Absence without explanation will be unauthorised. If the school is dissatisfied with the explanation provided, absence could also be unauthorised. Unauthorised absences could lead to a Fixed Penalty Notice from the Local Authority.
A copy of the school’s attendance policy can be found on the policies page of our website.
Welcome back, I hope you all had a lovely break.

Dates:
Tuesday 12th November – Odd Socks Day(wear a pair of odd socks)
Tuesday 19th November – Messy Church (KS2 Hall)
On Tuesday 12th November we are taking part in Odd Socks Day to help raise awareness of Anti-bullying week. This year the theme is ‘Change starts with us!’
Most importantly, Odd Socks Day is designed to be fun! It’s an opportunity to encourage people to express themselves and celebrate their individuality and what makes us all unique!
There is no pressure to wear the latest fashion or for parents to buy expensive costumes. All you have to do to take part is wear odd socks , it couldn’t be simpler! In school the children will have a series of assemblies and discussions in class to explore how a little bit of change can go a long way.
Ask the children today about why it is important not be ‘blinkered’ and the Odd socks song!
