Dear Parents and Carers, Welcome back to what promises to be an exciting half term. I hope you all had a restful break and that our pupils are ready to learn and enjoy the weeks ahead. I am personally delighted to be back in school after spending the past two and a half terms working for Government of Jersey. It has been wonderful to reconnect with pupils, staff and families. We have a busy and engaging half term planned, with plenty of opportunities for pupils to learn, achieve and enjoy new experiences. Thank you, as always, for your continued support. Best wishes, Phil Walker

Peer Mediation Graduation Ceremony
We are so proud of Austin and Kalina who represented our Peer Mediators at a celebration evening at Grand Jersey Hotel & Spa. They spoke confidently in two languages about the importance of peer mediation and the positive impact it has with our school community. An amazing achievement from both children - they were fantastic ambassadors for the school!
Nursey Parents
Nursery will be having an animal dress up fun day on Thursday 18th June. Please come to Nursery dressed up as your favourite animal and please bring a small donation of £2 if you can, this will go towards giving the children lots of fun and exciting treats before we break up for the summer. We will be having lots of fun animal activities throughout the day for the children to enjoy.
Snapchat and WhatsApp
We are aware that some primary-aged children are already using messaging apps such as Snapchat and WhatsApp to communicate with friends. While these apps can be a great way to stay connected, they can also expose children to inappropriate content, unkind messages, group chat pressures and contact from people they do not know. Please take time to talk with your child about how they use these apps, who they are communicating with and what they should do if something online makes them feel uncomfortable. Remind them never to share personal information, passwords or photos with people they do not know. Regular conversations at home are one of the most effective ways to help children stay safe online.
