Dear Parents and Carers 

We are upgrading our SchoolMoney system and you will shortly be able to order and pay for school lunches (hot food, jacket potatoes or packed lunch) online and in advance.  Moving forward this will be the method we use for dinner orders, which will need to be ordered a week in advance. 

If you do not have internet access, you will be able to telephone school to place an order and make payment at the same time. 

If you do not think we have your up-to-date contact information (mobile number and email address), please let us know.

We hope to roll this out shortly and will keep you updated.

Dear Parents and Carers

We have been asked to pass on details of a free festival next month:

There is a great free festival on in Norwich at the Forum on 8th and 9th July and we wanted to let families know about it. 

The Norfolk Deaf Festival has something for everyone, not just those with hearing loss.  We welcome families along to see events accessible in British SIgn Language and English.   

Improve your deaf awareness, learn circus skills, watch fully accessible street theatre, find out about hearing dogs for deaf people, see signing choirs, find out about mindfulness from a deaf mindfulness coach, see author Raymond Antrobus and illustrator Polly Dunbar read their book “Can Bears Ski?”, join in with an accessible exercise session, and learn some basic BSL. 

You can find us on facebook too @norfolkdeaffestival.

Dear Parents and Carers 

A quick reminder to make sure you send in named sun hats, named water bottles and named sun cream for your children as we are going to have a few hot days. 

We also need your permission to apply the sun cream if your child is unable to do this themselves – an email to the class team or school office would be appreciated.

On Friday, it is non-school uniform day because we are raising money for Ukraine.  Please make sure your child wears something suitable for the extreme heat that is forecast. 

Kind regards

Dear Parents/Carers, 

We are very excited to be able to invite you to Parkside’s Sports Day on  Tuesday 5 July. This will take place at Recreation Road Sports Centre 10am until 12pm. 

Please do not park at Recreation Road as parking is limited. 

Pupils will be moving around events in a carousel so you will be able to move around to watch them, however, we ask that you stay back from the events for safety reasons. 

We are hoping for sunny weather but in the unfortunate situation that it rains, we will have to move the Sports Day inside and will not be able to accommodate parents/carers attending. 

Kind Regards

Parkside School
