Reception Chicks

I've just been introduced to Mr Burton and Miss Quinton...our Reception Chicks!  We also have Mr Copley, Mr Town, Miss Hunter and Miss Heppner.  The chicks are helping our children learn lots about life cycles.  They're also very cute!

Cabot Carnival

Thank you for coming along to our very own Cabot Carnival last week.  It was fantastic display of colour and dancing enjoyed by all.  The costumes looked great and reflected some of the wonderful aspects of the city of Bristol including the Balloon Fiesta and the engineering of Brunel.  Thanks Miss Heppner for organising it and thanks to all the brilliant Cabot staff for joining in so enthusiastically as you always do!

Parents v Staff Football Match

Thank you to all the parents and staff who came and joined in the fun of our football match this week.  There were some great individual performances from some of the dads and they were unlucky to lose by a narrow margin of 14:5.  Better luck next time!  Thanks to everyone for making this such a happy event, including all the supporters who came to cheer us on.

Eid

Eid Mubarak!

Dear Parent / Carer,

As I am sure many of you are aware, many families in our community will soon be celebrating the Muslim festival of Eid.  This festival comes after a very warm month of Ramadan.  We anticipate that the celebration will fall either on Sunday the 25^th June or Monday 26^th June.  We understand that if you are celebrating Eid on the Monday you may wish your child to celebrate with you. If so then we will authorise one day of absence for religious observance.  However, school will be open and we will be ready to provide learning for all throughout the week as normal.

We recognise that Eid is a very important religious festival for so many people in our locality and across the world.   As a school we would like to be a part of this celebration.  On Tuesday 27^th June we will have a celebration day in school.  We are inviting all children to come to school in their finest celebration clothes.  These might be special clothes they have received as gifts for Eid or anything else they like to wear for special occasions.  Later in the afternoon classes will spend some time eating some celebratory food.  If you would like to send some food into school for your child to share with their class you are welcome to do so.  Please could you ensure none of the food contains nuts as we know some of the children at Cabot are allergic to nuts.  Could you please send the food in with your child to the class in the morning of the 27^th June. 

Best wishes and Eid Mubarak,

Tom Burton

Cabot Primary School-

More thermoplastics from Cabot Pupils

Friday 23^rd June

I hope you have had a chance to see the pupils' fantastic bugs and patterned designs captured in thermoplastic in St Agnes Park. This Friday (23^rd June) the thermoplastic design will extend onto Fern Street. This is to warn drivers that children are playing in the area and for them to slow down. The road will not be closed but the works will likely cause disruption to traffic during the day. Please therefore try and avoid traveling on or near Fern Street by car from 9.30am onwards on Friday. Do look out for the designs on your walk home or to the park. Please note that installation is weather dependent.

Sports Day

Skill, speed, stamina, teamwork and healthy competition were all on display at our fantastic Sports Day event, and that was just from the parents! 

Miss Thompson made sure that once again, Sports Day at Cabot was a fun day for all.  We have some very talented sports stars at Cabot and this was their chance to really shine alongside the whole school who put in maximum effort to every event.
