Welcome Back

Dear Parents,

Welcome back to school and the school year 2007 - 2008. We extend a warm welcome to all the new children and their families who join our school this term. We hope that you will all be very happy here. For those of you who have had children transfer to secondary school this term we hope that they have enjoyed their first day and will settle quickly.

This year we welcome Mrs Elaine Thomas back to school as HLTA (Higher Level Teaching Assistant). Mrs Thomas has a new role of supporting all staff and children throughout the school. I have listed all the staff below to help you keep track of who your children are talking about! Please remember that you are always welcome to contact us with any enquiries.

The school photographer will be in school TOMORROW Wednesday 5th September at 9am. Attached to this letter you will find the new Information From Parents form which we would be grateful if you could complete and return to school as soon as possible. Many of you will have filled these in before, but I am sure you can recognise our need to keep this information up to date. Registration forms for Breakfast Club are available in the main entrance and will need to be renewed for this year.

We would like to remind you that children are expected to book school meals per half term. Due to the need to order ingredients meals can not be ordered on a daily basis and where children wish to change from Meals to sandwiches (or vice versa) we ask that this is done only at half and term breaks. Lunch money this year will be £1.65 per day (£8.25 per week). Lunch money should be payable to "CCC" or "Ceredigion". As the school does not administer Lunch money payments are not able to be mixed with payments for school (cheques to Ysgol Comins Coch). All money sent to school must be in a sealed envelope with your child's name on. Should you forget there is always a supply of envelopes in the main school entrance.

We would also like to remind all parents that we do not allow any peanut products in school as these are very dangerous to a number of our pupils. Can we also remind you that if you do send a snack with your child for morning break, that the snack should be fruit only.

I apologise for the listing of information in this letter but as I am sure you appreciate it is important to have clear information from the start. We also hope to provide you with a full diary of the years activities by the end of next week.

As is always the case, please do not hesitate to contact us with any questions you may have regarding these or any other matters.

We are looking forward to an exciting and enjoyable school year!

Yours sincerely, Tom Fanning
