On Monday 24th April we will be learning about Eid and invite all children to wear special celebration clothes as part of this occasion. Please ensure that all clothes worn are sensible for school and appropriate for the weather on the day.

Footwear should be appropriate and enable your child to play outside safely - no sandals or open-toed shoes please. 

In assembly this week as part of our work on simplicity, we have explored the simple phrase 'Be Kind' and what this means - whether that is at home, school or out in our community. In school, we talk about using kind words and using our Golden Rule which is:

We look after ourselves, other people and our school.

I am proud of one member of squirrel class who has received three values stickers for being kind and helpful to others this week. I look forward to seeing lots more in the coming weeks.

We ask you to work with us and discuss these values with your child to reinforce the work we do in school.

Many people celebrate by lighting oil and candle diyas. They also decorate their hands with mehndi patterns, henna tattoos in many different designs. The children of Churchfields have made their own mehndi hands to celebrate the diversity of our school’s community.
