Welcome to our new Reception Families

This week, our new Reception children have started at Sheringham! They’ve had a fantastic start, exploring the environment, trying activities and making friends. Reception families, it is lovely to have you as part of the Sheringham community. 

Term Dates

Breakfast Club

A quick reminder to all our families using our morning Breakfast Club, which opens bright and early at 7:30 AM! As this is a paid service, please ensure your child is booked in and paid for every day they plan to attend. You can do this via the Arbor app. To keep our mornings safe and organised, we unfortunately cannot admit children who are not on the daily register, so parents will be asked to wait with their child if a booking has not been completed prior to arrival. 

Friday Club

Parents can still book a place on Friday Club for this term. Please register and pay for this on Arbor to secure your child’s place.

Newham Offer - Parent advice sessions with Educational Psychologist

Newham Educational Psychology Service are offering parent advice sessions for parents who may have a concern about their child’s learning progress, emotional wellbeing or challenging behaviours. Please follow the link here to book

Meet the Teacher for Year 1-6 pupils 

We are giving families the opportunity to meet their child’s new teacher, spend some time in their classroom and find out a little bit more about the year ahead. This short session will start promptly at 3:35pm. As these are group meetings, sadly there won’t be the chance to discuss individual children in depth.

The after school sessions will run from 3.35 - 4.00pm on the following days:

If families need to attend two meetings on the same night, there will be some time to move between the two classrooms within the session.

If you can’t attend, please don’t worry - we’ll put the information slides on Google Classroom. 

Year 6 Residential Information Session

With the Year 6 residential fast approaching at the end of October, we’d like to invite Year 6 parents to a brief information session to run through the details and answer any questions you may have.

When: Wednesday, 16th September (8:50 am – 9:20 am)

Where: Main Hall

If you were able to attend our session back in July, please feel free to skip this one as the content will be the same - unless, of course, you'd like a quick reminder! We look forward to seeing you there.

Head Lice – Year 1

Head Lice – Year

We would like to make you aware that a case of head lice has been reported in Year 1.

Please check your child’s hair regularly over the coming days. If you find head lice, please read the NHS guidance and treat affected children promptly and follow the treatment instructions carefully. Head lice are common among school-aged children and are easily spread through close head-to-head contact. Thank you for your cooperation and support in helping us keep our school community healthy.
