Keep up to date with all the latest news happening in school at the moment.

• Do you work at the MOD?

  Tue 29 Jun 2021

  Are you considered to be in the armed forces? If you are, then your child could be eligible for Service Pupil Premium, this is paid to schools in recognition to the specific challenges children from service families face and as part of the commitment to delivering the armed forces covenant.

• Mrs Martin’s weekly update:

  Tue 29 Jun 2021

  What a week this has been!!!!  Sports week is officially my favourite week of the year but I can safely say that Mrs Botteley has arranged the best sports week we have ever had with so many different sports for children to learn about and try and a great selection of people to inspire them.  The highlights have been;

   

  rugby with Jonathan Mills

  football and playing with respect with Bristol Rovers

  hockey skills with Tim Martin

  football with Downend Saints

  Tokyo Olympics with Progressive Sports

  Dance workshops with Miss Gould

  skipping workshops

  Sports Day

   

  The children have demonstrated incredible resilience and respect this week and I have been so proud with how they have tried new things with courage and have encouraged each other.  Competition in sport can be really tricky to manage when you are little and some children have found it easier than others this week but I know that all of them will have done something new this week and hopefully they have been inspired to keep going.  Special thanks to Mrs Botteley, Jonathan Mills, Jade Milbourne and Miss Gould for helping make this a brilliant week. The cricket workshops have been rearranged for another day later in the term.

• New Symptoms

  Tue 29 Jun 2021

  The COVID symptoms we all need to be aware of have also been added to as the Delta variant seems to have the following symptoms so please also be mindful of these;

  Headache

   

  Sore throat

   

  Runny nose

   

  With hay fever being so severe at the moment this is very difficult to identify so if in doubt keep children off school and book a test for peace of mind.  The other symptoms of a high temperature, persistent cough and loss of sense of taste or smell will still be relevant.

• Change to Y2 Leavers’ production

  Tue 29 Jun 2021

  Due to reviewed guidance that has been sent to schools we will unfortunately no longer be able to invite Y2 family members to watch the Leavers’ production in the Church.  We are so disappointed but have to prioritise everyone’s safety and ensure we are water tight in our risk assessment.  Instead we would like to invite one adult per child to the field to see the children receive their leavers’ bears and to hear staff something about each child’s journey at CCI. 

  Guidance now says that we can have up to 30 people outside at leavers events but not inside, hence the change.  We will still film the productions for you and are so sorry to have to make this necessary change;

   

  Mon 12th July at 2.15pm Penguin Leavers’ bears on field

  Thu 15th July at 2.15pm Zebra Leavers’ bears on field
