Yatton Infant School

Welcome back!

admin — Wed, 01 Sep 2010 20:22:46 +0000

Welcome back to school for a new school year. This is a very exciting time for our school. The school has been working together with the Junior School for over a year on a number of projects that will benefit the schools both now and in the future, such as a shared bursar and the creation of a Breakfast Club that is available for children in both schools. A Joint Working Party is in the process of creating a consultation document to propose a “Federation” of our schools some time next year. This would mean that both schools would keep their individual identity, but would have a single Governing body and a single leadership structure. This would make it easier for the schools to work together, share best practices, provide continuity, improve learning and progression for the children and enhance the range of teaching and learning opportunities to raise standards even further. These proposals will be shared with parents and carers shortly.

In the meantime, I am very pleased to have been appointed as Executive Headteacher of both schools on a temporary basis, and am looking forward to seeing both familiar and new faces over the coming weeks.

Jo Keeble, Headteacher

Yatton Community Out of School Club – Easter Break

Unfortunately, due to lack of numbers, the Yatton Community Out of School Club will only be open during the Easter Holidays on Monday, 12th and Friday, 16th April. Please use the Club if you can to ensure that this valuable community resource is able to remain open during the school holidays. The Club will be open after school in Term 5 as usual.

It’s Official – we are an Outstanding School!

Children in Need

Thank you for helping your children to dress up in something “dotty” to raise money for Children in Need.

You raised a fantastic £292!

What a great start!

We have had a fantastic start to the new academic year!

We have achieved a silver “Singing School” award, International School status… and won 3rd prize in the Noscars!

Walk to School Week

18th to 22nd May has been designated by North Somerset Council as “Walk to School Week”.

We are keen to see as many children as possible get to school using any mode of “green travel” such as scooter, bike or bus (or walking at least 5 minutes from where your car has been parked! ).

We could win an award if 100 per cent of children can come to school in one of these ways. The School Council would like everyone to participate and make a particular effort of “Use your Feet Friday!”

Good Luck!

Maths Week

All classes enjoyed Maths Week with lots of exciting mathamatical games, challenges and activities going on. It was lovely to see so many mums, dads and grandparents working with their children as well.
