Dear Parents and Carers House Points Goodwood won the Noreen Carey House Cup the week before the holidays! Well done.
Parent Governor Election Results Thank you to all our parents who stood for election and voted in the Parent Governor Ballot in February. Congratulations to the successful candidate, Mrs Jo Newton-Smith. We hope you will join us in welcoming Mrs Newton-Smith to our Governing Body. Parent Newsletter Distribution The office will be e-mailing the Parent Newsletter to all parents this week for the first time. For this first time only you will also receive a paper copy. Following this week you will receive all newsletters by e-mail if you have provided us with an up-to-date valid e-mail address. If we do not hold a valid e- mail address for you a paper copy will be sent home via your class teacher. Once this system is fully operational it is hoped that all communications to parents will be sent home by e-mail. Sports Relief The sponsorship money raised by the children has been flooding in since our return from the Easter holidays. We think we may now have received all money raised and that total is a staggering £4,389.98. This is an incredible achievement by all the children – well done and thank you for supporting them!
