The school meal menu can be found here on our website.  Please look at the menu with your child and talk about the different options on offer each day. 

Teacher Recommends

Each week in the newsletter, a different teacher will recommend a favourite book.  How many will you have read?

This week’s recommendation is Stig of the Dump by Clive King, which comes at the recommendation of Mr. Nisbet.  Mr. Nisbet says “Stig of the Dump is the kind of book that people call ‘timeless’.  This means it will always be loved.  It is timeless in another way: the story concerns a mysterious character, Stig – a boy with shaggy hair and no English – who resembles cave dwellers from the distant past.  He is discovered quite by accident by the story’s other main character, Barney, when playing by an overgrown chalk quarry near his house – without his mother’s permission.  The two become friends, and their adventures begin.  I love this tale because it contains magical ingredients of childhood: mystery, danger, discovery, parties, stars and friendship.  It is written in beautiful prose that reveals a kind heart.  Let the words tingle in you and inspire your own magical adventures.”

Community Noticeboard

Don’t forget to visit the Community Noticeboard page on our website for information about local clubs, organisations and events.  Just added is information from Bottisham Village College about swimming lessons and information from SCDC about athletics and netball holiday camps.  There is also an invitation from Fulbourn Community Choir for more singers to join the group, singing a range of music and which will be performing at Fulbourn Feast.
