    To those who bought MC Grammar’s book Y4&6

    As you may have seen on posters, MC Grammar is going to be the headline act of this years Summer Fair. The children will be able to see MC Grammar perform and there will be a meet and greet afterwards. I do have all of the books already signed by MC Grammar and will give these out in the week before he performs. If your child wants their book before then, please ask them to come and ask me (Mr Descrettes) for it. Please note you will still have to have tickets for the Summer Fair in order to attend.

    Y4,5,6 Book Club/ Summer Term Reading Challenge

    As said in the letter sent out this week, we have set a mini reading challenge for children in Y4, 5 and 6. If your child does want to take part in the challenge and buy the books through the school, then the books can be bought via the Arbor App. Please click on ‘School Shop’ rather than ‘Payments’ in order to purchase the book bundle. The deadline for this is the end of the school day on Thursday.

    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.
