House Point Cup Winners!
Congratulations to Avon Blues!
On the 27th November 2023, Year 5 went on an epic school trip to Leicester Space Centre. They found a control panel, a space shuttle simulator and a rocket launcher. The lucky ducks went in a glass lift to see the fuel container of a rocket. They also learned about how astronauts communicate in spacecrafts but their favourite thing was the hologram roof and planetarium. The film was so realistic and enjoyable that they felt like they were in space. They spent ages in the interactive area doing things like remaking the big bang, controlling a space robot and gravity walls. They were shocked to find out how many fancy suits the astronauts wore and how they functioned.
Year 5 would like to say thank you to all the adults who helped to plan and come on the trip, especially Rowan’s mum Tash and Mr Matthews who gave up their time to volunteer.

Practicing good hygiene can also help guard against the spread of measles. Please remember to:
- Wash hands frequently with soap and water, especially after coughing or sneezing. Use hand sanitiser when soap is unavailable.
- Avoid touching your face, especially the eyes, nose, and mouth. Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue or elbow when coughing or sneezing. Dispose of used tissues properly.
- Regularly clean and disinfect surfaces that come in contact with hands with disinfectant wipes and sprays to control the spread of germs.
Please let the school office know each day your child is absent from school by calling 01789 293412, option 1, and leaving a message. You may also email parents3002@welearn365.com. You do not need to contact us daily if your child is sick/vomits. Absences for sickness/vomiting will be recorded 48 hours from the end of the day your child was last sick (i.e. if sick on Sunday, come back on Wednesday; if Tuesday come back on Friday) nor for COVID absences.
Medicines in School
We cannot accept medicines in school without a prescription label and a medical form completed by a parent or carer. Please ask the school office for more information and/or a form via parents3002@welearn365.com.
