Christmas Disco
It’s our Christmas Disco today after school! Each ticket entitles you to a free drink and packet of crisps.
Just a note on logistics:
Please enter through the main school entrance. At the end of the disco, collecting of children will be from the Purple Hall doors that open directly onto the playground. To get there, go through the large gate onto the playground.
EYFS and KS1 4.00 – 5.00pm
KS2 5.30 – 6.30pm

Christmas Lunch
A reminder that *all* children must book a Christmas lunch if required, even if they normally receive free school meals. If you don’t book it, you won’t get it on the day!
Slips must be returned to the school office on or before 3.20pm on Monday 9th December.

Important police message
Important safety message:
Police have informed us that they are again (Friday 22nd) responding to reports of a male exposing himself to pupils on the path between Ambury Road and One Leisure.
Police action is ongoing, but we strongly advise that your children are not left to walk unaccompanied in this area until an arrest has been made.
Thank you.

Flu Vaccination
Flu Vaccine:
A reminder that Thursday 28th November is Flu jab day. Parents need to have given consent for children to have the jab using the online portal:
https://tinyurl.com/yyjt5ojo
If consent is not given via the portal then your child WILL NOT receive the vaccine in school and you will have to apply to your own GP to get the jab.
If you have a query about the portal you can always phone the health team direct to check:
0300 555 5055 Option 1.

No milk today
Many apologies but due to an abnormally warm fridge there will be no milk available for the children who usually receive it, until the next delivery arrives (most likely tomorrow). It’s currently all a bit lumpy!

Children in Need total!

Safeguarding – Ambury Road Path
Dear Parents/ Carers
We have been informed that the Police are dealing with reports of a male exposing himself to pupils on the path between Ambury Road and One Leisure.
Please take care. We advise that your children are not left to walk unaccompanied in this area.
Thank you.

Children In Need
HPS is taking part in Children In Need again this year.
On Friday 15th the children are being asked to bring in a £1 donation and wear a spotty accessory for the day! This could be socks/ears/gloves etc.
Year six have also made eerily accurate Fortune Tellers that they’ll be selling for 20p each at lunchtime on the day.

Poppy Appeal

Dinner change
We’ve had a problem with the Gas supply in our main kitchen this morning. Consequently our Head Chef Mrs Griffiths and team have not been able to cook the roast dinner that was on the menu for today.
Instead we’ll be having a lunch of sandwiches, salads, fruit and (of course!) yummy puddings.
The Gas Engineers have been called and we’re assured the Gas will be working tomorrow. We’ll have the Roast Dinner tomorrow!
