  🐣🐰 Easter at St Giles 🐰🐣
  
  We are inviting all children and parents/carers to work together to create either an Easter bonnet or decorate a hard boiled egg. You can be as creative as you like! Please make sure your child/ren bring their Easter Bonnets or their decorated eggs into school the morning of Thursday 28th March. 👒 🥚 🤩
  
  We would like to welcome all parents and carers into school on the morning of Thursday 28th March at 9:15am to watch the children on their Easter Parade around the playground (weather permitted!) ❄️ ☔️ ☀️ If the weather is against us we will be in the hall but more information about this will be sent closer to the time. 🤩
  
  You are also invited to our Easter Service which is in St Giles Church on Tuesday 26th March at 2.30pm led by our wonderful year 3 and 4 children. Our school choir will also be performing 🎵 🌟

• Stay and Play / Book Look

  Sat 02 Mar 2024 Bethany Simpson

  🌟🤩CALLING ALL PARENTS AND CARERS🤩🌟
  
  Every half term we would like to invite you to come along to our ‘Stay and Play’ sessions which are aimed at Class 1 and 2 parents and carers, and our ‘Book Look’ sessions which are aimed at Class 3 and 4 parents and carers.
  
  We value the importance of parental involvement in school life and believe that by sharing your child's work and books and providing opportunities for you to come into school, it will allow you to gain a deeper understanding of their development and learning journey at our wonderful school.
  
  Our next Stay and Play session will take place on Monday 11th March from 2:45pm until 3:15pm. This is an opportunity for your child to show you around their classroom, see their wonderful work and a chance to play with your child in their learning environment. On the day, please sign in at the school office and our friendly office staff will show you to class 1 and 2.
  
  Our next book look session will take place on Wednesday 13th March after school from 3:15pm until 3:45pm. On the day, please collect your child as normal and then enter school through the main school entrance. Please allow time for teachers to dismiss the children safely at the end of the day before queuing at the front door. During the allocated time, you will be able to spend time in your child's classroom, where all of their work, books and displayed work will be available for you to share and celebrate with your child/ren.
  
  Thank you,
  Miss. Simpson, Mr O'Connell and The St Giles Team 🌟
