We have recently made an application to the Tesco Bags of Help Grant Scheme and we are delighted to inform you all we have been successful and our project has made the final three! The project will be put forward to a customer vote in Tesco stores from Tuesday 2nd January 2018 to Wednesday 28th February 2018.

All you have to do is ask for a voting coin at the checkout and simply put the coin into our voting box. Please see below a list of local Tesco stores taking part in our project:

Aston Lane, B6 6QR

Hodge Hill, B36 8DT

Bromford Express, B36 8BL

Castle Bromwich, B34 7EH

Erdington Six Way, B23 7NR

Green Lane Castle Bromwich, B38 0BX

Water Orton Express, B46 1SR

If you do not shop at a Tesco store listed above, you are able to ask for a voting coin and bring it to the local stores, or alternatively bring the coin into school and we will take it into store and vote for you.

Results will be announced end of March 2018.

We will be holding our annual Christmas carol concert on Wednesday 20th December 2017.

A letter will be sent out to Parents/Carers of children in the choir, asking them for permission to attend. Children are welcome to stay late on this evening and attend tea club for free. If you wish to collect your child, they need to be back at school by 5.30pm, in full school uniform.

Family members of children in the choir are welcomed to watch the performance. On the letter, please state how many tickets you would like. We try our hardest to seat family members in front of the their child.

We hope to see you all there.

Children will be able to wear their Christmas jumpers or Christmas themed clothing to school on Tuesday 19th December 2017.

On this day, we will also be serving Christmas dinner.

If your child usually brings their own packed lunch to school, but you would like them to receive a cooked Christmas dinner on this day,

please call the office to book.

A dinner will cost £2 per child.

Children in receipt of free school meals will automatically receive a Christmas dinner.

If you do not want your child to have one, please let school know.

Leading up to Christmas, children will creating their very own card designs. The designs will be produced into lovely handmade cards for Christmas.

Cards, with an envelope, will be 50p each to purchase.

This is a lovely idea that the school council have thought of, to help raise money for school fund.

All cards will be made solely by the children.  

If you would like to purchase Christmas cards, please contact the office on 0121-4642002 for more information.

The Sport Council have spoken....

At a recent sport council meeting, the children have put forward the idea of introducing a hot, cooked breakfast option at Breakfast Club.

Up until the end of term, (for the next 2 weeks), we will be doing Sausage Wednesday and Friday Fry-up.

Please do not be put off by the word 'fry up'.

All food will be the best and most healthy range, while being grilled, not fried.

Wednesday 13th & 20th - Sausage Wednesday - 50p

Friday 15th & 22nd - Friday Fry-up £1

As the food is not subsidised by Magic Breakfast, we will have to charge for this.

However, the usual cereal and toast options will still be on offer, for free. 

This will be trailed and if it is a success, the idea will continue in the new year.
