Pinocchio Production
Our whole school family will get to watch a wonderful performance of Pinocchio by M&M Productions as a reward for a wonderful first week of the new school year. Year 6 are lucky enough to take part in a workshop after the production focusing on all the behind the scenes secrets that make the production happen. They will learn about the staging, props, outfits, sound and lighting! A huge thank you to our FOSB (Friends of St Barnabas) PTFA for their kind donation towards the production.

Meet the teacher meetings
On Thursday 10th September we are holding 'meet the teacher' meetings for all year groups. We would love to welcome you into your child's classroom to see their classroom, meet their teacher/s and to hear about what to expect whilst your child is in their class. You will also have the opportunity to ask any questions you may have too. Please do not worry if you are unable to make the meeting due to work commitments as class teachers will be posting the powerpoint on class dojo. There will also be a parents evening in December. We have tried to stagger the times for siblings but we are aware that we may not be able to suit everyone sorry, so feel free to spend half the time in one class and half in the other, if you have children with the same meeting time. The times will be as follows: Reception: 2.45pm Years 1 and 2: 3.00pm Years 3 and 4: 3.30pm Years 5 and 6: 4.00pm We look forward to welcoming you into school.
School photo day
All children in school will have an individual photo and photo with their siblings. Younger pre-school siblings are welcome to come early at 8.15am to have their photo taken with their older siblings. Please can all children come into school in their full smart school uniform as there will be no PE lessons that day due to photographs in the hall. We have chosen a local company again this year which are more cost effective. We had our Year 6 leavers memories books created by them and they were wonderful.
