Welcome back! I hope 2015 is a Happy New Year for you all! I am looking forward to welcoming everyone back for the new term ahead.
I do hope that you all had a wonderful holiday. Thank you so much for all the cards and presents that were given to the staff from the children. We were all very touched by your thoughtfulness and kindness.
This week at Copthorne
Forest Schools
Forest Schools will resume on Friday for Year 4. The children will go to St Ives in Bingley to take part in Forest School activities as part of their work in class. The weather has now turned much colder so children will need to be wrapped up warm. I am looking forward to hearing all about their adventures.
School finishing times
Lessons finish at 3pm for both Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2 children. Please be aware, therefore, that children will not be out of school until a couple of minutes after this time as, once lessons finish, children have to collect their belongings and coats etc. We look forward to your support in this matter. Thank you.
Dates for your diary
Fluoride Varnishing Programme
Children in the Bradford and Airedale district have high levels of tooth decay. To help fight tooth decay in young children the NHS has started a special programme for 2-4 year olds.
The Fluoride Varnish Dental Team will be visiting Foundation stage on Monday 12th January to recruit children to the programme. They are hoping to meet as many parents as possible for consent to apply the fluoride varnish to their childrens’ teeth. The fluoride in the varnish will help to keep their teeth strong. The team will then come back into school on Monday 19th January to apply the varnish.
I hope you all have a lovely week
