Keep up to date with all the latest news happening in school at the moment.
The application process for reception children, 2021, is now open. If your child was born between 1 September 2016 and 31 August 2017, you must apply for them to start primary school in September 2021. This is a very important decision and it is important that you read the South Gloucestershire Primary school admission guide before you apply. Applications for primary school admission must be submitted no later than 15 January 2021. There is lots of information on the South Glos site: Apply for a school place here
Real life Super Hero dressing up day - Thursday 22nd October (last day of term for children)
To celebrate the end of our topic this term we are planning a fun-filled day in each class with practical real life super hero activities, and each class having their own focus depending on what they have been learning. This is when we’d usually invite families in to celebrate their learning but we can’t do this at the moment.
The staff are all going to dress up as real life superheroes such as NHS staff but children can go for any super hero costume you may have or outfits such as NHS staff, people who changed/made Black History such as Rosa Parks, firefighters, police officers, supermarket staff, refuse lorry drivers or even Captain Tom! Or be creative - anyone who is a hero to them!
You are very welcome to make donations of £1 to the school to help us with fundraising but this is not the point of the day. It is all about us celebrating having been back together, having fun whilst learning and ending term 1 in style.
Please do not feel you need to buy costumes, a cape made from a sheet and face painted mask would do!
The staff are bound to have some spare costumes too so if you are struggling please let us know.

As part of our Harvest celebrations we are collecting donations for the food bank for the next 2 weeks. We will have a collection box outside the main gate at drop off and pick-up times if you are wanting to send in any items from the list on the Newsletter we would be very grateful. Please DO NOT send baked beans, as they have more than enough of those though thanks.
Today is World teacher’s day and I couldn’t let it pass by without saying thank you to my amazing team of teachers. Every single one is superb and I would choose them all to teach my own children - something I don’t say lightly.
Happy World Teachers day to TeamCCI teachers, you are incredible!

Parent Forum
This week I held our first parent forum meeting virtually. We had a brilliant attendance and thank you to those of you who joined me and contributed to the agenda. The minutes are on the website (www.christchurchinfants.co.uk/parent-forum/)
Texts home
Staff are being asked to send a few texts home each day, to their class, to tell you how well your child has done that day in school. (This will not be for your child every day!) These are lovely to receive and a really good way for us to communicate with you now that we can't talk as easily face to face and they will be sent via the school app. Please make sure you have downloaded this and pop to the office if you do not receive them. We will send some trial texts on Monday to each class so you can see if it works.

Thank you.
Thank you to all the children and their families for the support in our school census day, we had a whopping 197 children take a meal.
I have to say there was much excitement as Mrs Martin was in charge of the ketchup during the children’s lunch time!
