Dear Phoenix Families
Another busy but short week at school with only two weeks left of the school year.
Thank you to the parents who made time to come to our recent parent forum. I have attached a PDF of the forum which is packed full of great ideas for easy home activities to keep your children off their devices and engaged in creative, imaginative, practical and revision activities. Below are some of the websites mentioned in the forum.

Congratulations to Coventry House for their cross-country win yesterday. All children in our upper school have been running the cross-country course each week of Term 3. As their fitness increased, their times decreased. The winning house was the house with the fastest runners overall. We have some winners of the junior and senior categories so well done to our individual winners as well as all the children who ran their personal best yesterday!
Please make a note of the following big events next week:
Tuesday 25 June: 9:15 Nursery and Reception Sports Day– Parents please park in the main car park at the front of the school.
Tuesday 25 June: 11:00 Year 1 and Year 2 Sports Day – Parents please park on the side field and in the main car park
Wednesday 26 June: 7:45 Years 3-6 Sports Day – Bottom Sports field ( There is limited parking at the bottom field – please use the main car park at the school.)
All our Phoenix parents are invited to attend the AGM. All parents are members of the Phoenix School Association. The Chair and Treasurer of the Board of Trustees will present their reports to the parents, and we have an election to fill three vacancies on the board. The candidates' applications are posted near the school office. The meeting begins at 6:00 pm.
SEATBELTS SAVE LIVES! We are on the final day of our bumper sticker artwork campaign. We hope to have new bumper stickers made for all our Phoenix families reminding you and everyone else that wearing seat belts can save lives! Please make sure you show your love for your family by ensuring seatbelts are worn at all times in the car!
The children are learning about, talking about and talking to you about healthy eating. We are seeing children with some very healthy snack boxes and lunches. Thank you for helping the children to live what they learn. Please see the attached list of ideas for healthy eating that can easily be sent to school for your children.
Next week is the last week of afternoon activities.
Enjoy your weekend, Phoenix families.
