SPRING 1
Welcome back!
We hope you and your families have enjoyed a lovely holiday and made the most of the end of holiday snowfall! We are looking forward to another great half term with our Year 1 children.
There will be lots of information for you, our parents and carers, so please look out for messages on SCHOOLSBUDDY as this is our main means of communication.
Please take time to look at X where we will show you the learning and experiences taking place in school. Please tell us if you do not wish your child to appear on social media or our website.
Please feel free to speak to us at the gate in the mornings or after school and do not hesitate to contact us on info@stjohnsrc.net should you have any queries.
