Swimming - it will be the last swimming session of the academic year on Monday.

Federation Sports Day - as per the details sent out previously, please ensure all children are taken to Copdock Village Hall for 8:45am. The carpark is a one-way system. Please drive in and follow the road around the hall to drop your child at the field gate. Staff will be there to direct you and receive the children. You will then be able to follow the one-way system out. Children need to wear a t-shirt of their designated team colour with PE shorts and trainers.  They will need a water bottle and packed lunch if they have not pre-ordered a hot dinner.  Please ensure they also have sun hat and cream applied, as well as a raincoat.  Families are welcome to join us on the field for a picnic at 12 noon.  Collection will also be from the hall - if your child is due to attend after school club please let the office know so that we can arrange for them to be transported back to school.  Please refer to the letter sent out at the beginning of the month for more details. 

Please see the link to the dance routine which will be part of the Sports Day Opening Ceremony.  Please encourage children to practise this at home.  It would be great if all children could take part.
