• Parking Outside The School Gates

  Fri 01 Jul 2022

  Parking Outside The School Gates

   

  Unfortunately on a daily basis, some parents are parking on the white lines directly outside the school gates.

   

  This is severely impeding the vision for  anyone leaving the school car park as you have to drive into the middle of the road to see past these vehicles.

   

  For your information, the legal distance from which you are able to park from a junction is 10m/32ft. This is to allow drivers merging from or  turning into the junction/road a clear view of the road they are joining. It is illegal to park any closer.

   

  Thank you for your co-operation in parking safely.

  Bath Rugby Roadshow

   

  Children in EYFS and UKS2 were fortunate enough to have a “Rugby Roadshow” with Bath Rugby this Thursday. It was extremely enjoyable experience for all those involved and all children took something away from their sessions – the idea that Rugby is both fun and challenging!

  EYFS/Year 6 Buddies

   

  The Year 6 Buddies and all the EYFS children FINALLY got an opportunity to meet each other and engage in a PE lesson together on Tuesday. It was a wonderful afternoon and the older children were excellent role models to the youngest children in our school family.

   

  Here’s some pupil voice from Year 6 children about meeting their buddies.

   

  “I enjoyed the games with my buddies because we got to build a bond with them by talking to them and getting to know them personally.” Seth C.

   

  “I enjoyed meeting the children in Reception as they were very nice. They made my day when we played games with them.” Lucas H.

   

  “What I enjoyed was that I got know someone new, and that we played fun games with them which made them happy.” Imogen K.
