We have opened a ‘Community Fridge’ to make good quality food freely available to our families and to local people - and we’d love you to come and visit!

What an exciting first half term.  We've got so much to share with you

We’re so excited to share the news that following our recent Ofsted inspection, we’ve been recognised as a Good school by Ofsted.

We’ve had a really successful term in school, and we just wanted to write to update you about a few important things

I hope you have all had an enjoyable summer break, and managed some valuable family time.

At Princeville, we are all looking forward to the new term and as usual the teachers have been working hard to plan lots of exciting learning experiences for all our pupils.

School Return

School will open on Monday 4th September for all pupils. The doors will open at the usual time of 8:45am and close at 8:50am. Staff will be outside in the morning to direct you to where you need to go if you are unsure.

Don’t forget: Be on time, at quarter to nine!

Welcome Meetings and Classes

We have planned a teacher welcome meeting for every year group, this will give you an opportunity to meet your child’s class teacher and find out what learning looks like for them.

Below is also a reminder of which adults are teaching where.

New Canopies

We are extremely excited with the work that has been completed in both the Early Years/Key Stage 1 and the Key Stage 2 playground with the new canopies that have been installed.

These will offer protection from all weathers and ensure our pupils have access to a comfortable and enjoyable outdoor space in all weathers.

Uniform

It is really important for pupils to arrive at school in the correct uniform. Uniform shows we’re a community and part of a team. I have included a reminder for you below.

Our everyday school uniform is the following:

• Grey Sweatshirt with our academy logo
• Purple polo shirt with our academy logo
• Grey full-length trousers or grey skirt
• Purple-checked Summer Dress

P.E Uniform

• Purple Sweatshirt with or without our academy logo (please re-use current jumpers for this purpose)
• White polo shirt with or without our academy logo

We are looking forward to seeing all pupils return on Monday 4th September, looking smart and ready to start the new term.

Children with strong attendance succeed in school, and these good habits last a lifetime.

85% attendance means a child has missed six weeks of school across the year!

So far this year, we have lost 631 days to unauthorised extended leave – that’s the same number of days as one child attends in almost three-and-half years at school!

We want to work with you to make the most of the education that’s on offer to your child. We want to play a part in making them successful now and in the future, but we need your help!

Children who attend 100% are 5 times more likely to work at, or above, the expected standard.
