Dear John Randall family

We need your support and help!

The school budget for next year is calculated on a single day.

The school dinner numbers are used to work out the budget.

It is a system out of our control.

So how many school dinners we serve determines our whole school budget for next year!

Please order a lunch on Thursday 1^st October !

Can I ask you all to support school by booking a lunch for your children on Thursday.

It’s a guaranteed winner … Hot dogs, French fries with fried onion and sweetcorn relish or a vegetarian Corn dog with all the trimmings

Pudding is ice cream with chocolate sauce!

It will make all the difference to the exciting learning we can offer the children all year!

Happy to answer any questions

Dear John Randall Family and Friends,

Dear John Randall Family

The gates will open at 8.30am. The registers will be taken at 8.55 sharp! It will be really help us to keep everyone safe by ensuring all children are in school by 8.55am.

The school gates will re-open at 2.45pm for the end of the school day. We are extending the opening and collection times to make sure there is plenty of room on the playground for all to move around safely.

Please wear a mask if you wish to do so.

A reminder of all the changes happening in school – it’s a bit different!

Uniform:

Children to wear school polo shirt and logo jumper on the top half. Navy or black Tracksuit trousers and black trainers on the bottom half. This is so that your child can take part in all outdoor activities/ PE without having to change. If you have dresses then please wear thick tights or legging underneath and a jumper on top.

•  Make sure the children have a coat in school every day.
• Please do not bring PE kits into school, lunch boxes or ruck sacks.

We will be doing outdoor activities every day and not just PE days. The children will be doing the mile track and having Forest School sessions on a daily basis. We are doing this to make sure the children and adults are spending regular time out of doors and having lots of time to get to know each other again.

If your child is in early years and may need a change of under clothes – please bring a separate bag with a change of pants and tracksuit bottoms into school with your child’s name on it.

School lunches:

We are very excited to be able to announce that our chefs have started and we have our very own John Randall Food Team!

Ask your children about the wonderful meals chef Gareth has made already… The menus will be out next week and lunches will be £2.30 please pay by parent pay – we will not be accepting cash.

Please bring any sandwiches in a paper or plastic bag which can be thrown away. This includes drinks bottles. Please don’t bring lunch boxes or bags as we are trying to reduce the contamination risk of items going from home to school and back to home.

Car park:

The car park is completely off limits to parents, unless you have a disabled badge for your child!

We are very sorry for any congestion at the back of school – this is due to the building works and a new car park! I will be writing to you about this separately.

We are keeping up with government policy and the safety of your children and our staff is always my first priority. I know you will understand.

Please don’t hesitate to contact me or your parent governors if you need any further information. Parent governors are: Maz Ahmed and Belinda Ezeazu.

Please take care and keep safe.

Best wishes,

Stephanie Dowley
