Book Fair

Alhamdullilah, the book fair was a great

success. We sold £486.04 worth of books

from which we received 10% to spend on

books for the school library. Jazakallah for

your continuous support!

Uniform

It is lovely to see so many of our children

looking smart in their uniforms. Please can

we remind parents that children should only

be wearing maroon jumpers or cardigans.

Labelling belongings

Please could we request parents once again

to label all of your child’s belongings to

avoid mix-ups.

Cold Weather.

As we have now entered the winter season,

we kindly request parents to dress their

children appropriately for the weather.

All children MUST come to school wearing a

coat and suitable footwear.

Coffee morning

Our last coffee morning for this term will

be held on Thursday 21st December from

9:00am-9:30am.

Bake sale

Alhamdulillah, our bake sale was a huge

success and we raised a total of £724.77

for Rohingya. Jazakllah for all your support.

Parent’s meeting

We will be holding a Parent’s meeting on

Monday 8th of January to discuss your

child’s progress. Please try to attend.

Reading books

This term, we have had an increase in

children damaging/losing their school books.

We would like to request parents to help

their child look after school books as when

these are lost, children do not have access

to the full range of books.

Football and Hockey tournament

On the 15th of November, the year 5&6

children took part in a tournament against

French Wood Primary, Al Ikhlas Primary

school and Imam Muhammad Zakaria in

Preston. The children played brilliantly and

secured 2nd position. Well done!

Young writer’s competition

Well done to: Anisah Bashir, Esmaeel

Shahbaz, Maryam Saeed, Jamil Mohammed

and Aliya Ahmed for having their work

published in the Crazy Creatures Tales from

the North book.

Anti bullying week

Well done to the children who took part in

the ‘Odd Sock’ competition. Children learnt

about bullying and the consequences of

bullying. The Year 4 class presented an

assembly to raise awareness on different

types of bullying and what to do if they

encounter or witness bullying.

Booster sessions

Following the success of booster sessions

for the year 6 children, we have decided to

now hold booster sessions for the year 5

children also. We would like to request

parents to send in their reply slips by Friday

22nd December.
