Eid Celebrations

Dear Parents,

Next week will be the Muslim festival of Eid. This is a very important religious celebration and I understand families will want to spend it together with their children.  As we have done in previous years, the school will authorise one day of absence for this religious celebration for our Muslim pupils. I have been told that it is likely that our Somali community will be celebrating Eid on the 15^th October and our Pakistani families on the 16^th October.  The school will be open for pupils on both of these days. We would like to share in the celebrations. After school Friday the 18^th October at 3.15 we will be holding an Eid Celebration Food sale. We would like contributions of food to sell, either traditional Eid food (pakora is my favourite!) or cakes and party food.  Money raised will be donated to the Islamic Relief Charity.

More information about the good work this charity do can be found at this website –

Eid Mubarak!

 We have decided to reschedule our parents evening meetings for the following week on the 22^nd and 23^rd October.  Time tables for these will go up in classes next week.
