We have had complaints from local residents about parents parking over and reversing into their drives. Please could everyone ensure they park considerately and may we remind you that the zig zag lines should not be used as a drop off point. They are there to protect our children and parents and to keep everyone safe. We recommend parents park further away from school and walk up Knowlesly Road to avoid traffic congestion around our school gates.
Next Thursday morning we have our Harvest Service in St Barnabas church at 9.30am. This will be led by our WOW (Worship our way) group and Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 will be taking part . Parents are very welcome to come along and show their support.
Donations of packets and tinned food and toiletries would be very much appreciated for our local food bank and DARE (Darwen Asylum and Refugee Enterprise)
We also have a non-uniform day on Thursday to raise awareness during Down Syndrome Awareness month.
The FOSB Autumn disco is also in the evening- tickets are only available till midnight tonight via parent pay so that our FOSB members can order the correct amounts of food and drinks.
Friday is an INSET day so school will be CLOSED.
Wishing you all a lovely weekend and thank you for your continued support, Mrs Ham
