Weekly reminder 12th - 16th May 2025
Whole School
Coldfall and the RNLI
The RNLI (The Royal National Lifeboats Institution) will be visiting Coldfall on Friday 6th June to deliver some workshops in upper KS2 and to film some promotional material for their education campaigns. (Photo permission forms will be sent separately). We will be planning some whole school fundraising activities so that we can give them a donation on the day. If you or your children would like to take part in any additional fundraising for this worthwhile charity, you could consider taking part in the Mayday Challenge (walking/running/cycling one mile a day for the month of May) or planning your own sponsored event. If you do want to fundraise, or if I can be of any assistance, please let me know. (From Mr Descrettes.)
Fundraising
Belle in Year 5 is taking part in the Big Fun Walk with her mum to raise funds for North London Hospice in honour of Gina Manley. If you would like to donate, please follow the link below.
Picking up from school, Nursery, Activity Clubs and Night Owls
Once you collect your children, please do not remain on the school site. You should collect your child on time and then exit the site straight away. Children who have been collected are not permitted to play on the climbing frame etc. Thank you.
Injuries
If your child has an injury which prevents them from joining in with their normal lessons such as PE or written work, please send an email to the class teacher via the school office. Otherwise, we will assume children are well enough to participate.
Parking
Please do not park in the disabled parking spaces near the school under any circumstances. These spaces designated for specific residents, not the school. This issue frequently causes disputes with local residents with disabilities who are prevented from using the spaces to access their homes/vehicles.
Choir and Junior Chorus Assemblies
On Friday 4th July Junior Chorus will be performing in a whole school assembly. Parents of children in Junior Chorus are invited to attend.
On Friday 11th July the Choir will be performing for the whole school at 9am. Parents of children in the Choir are invited to attend.
Sweets/Party Bags
A reminder not to allow children to bring any sweets to school (including delivering party bags from parties at the weekends). Some children are not allowed to eat sugar for various reasons and this can cause difficulties for them.
Term Dates
On 27th June the school will be open as normal and before and after school provision will be available as usual.
Dogs
No dogs, with the exception of service dogs, should be brought onto the school site. Also, if you need to leave your dog outside the school, please tie them to the fence and not the gates which need to be opened and closed. Thank you.
Holiday Camps at Coldfall
Booking for the May and Summer Holiday Camps is now open! Please book via Arbor. We have had great feedback from the children who attended our Easter Camp who enjoyed lots of activities! Please see April Headlines for the full list and some photos.
Lost Property
Please note any clothing that is not clearly named will be donated to Friends of Coldfall each Friday for their second-hand uniform sales.
