Easter Egg Raffle The Easter Egg Raffle will be held on the last day of term (Friday 22nd) Please can we have a final push for all egg donations to be in school by Friday morning. The money raised is going towards a new allotment and raised beds for the children.
Bags 2 school The school received £92 for our bags 2 school campaign, thank you for your support.
Lockdown Procedure. As part of our safeguarding policy, the school completes a lockdown practice once a term. We call this a hide form the head so that children do not feel anxious. We do not share the procedures for safeguarding reasons. If you have any further questions please do not hesitate to ask your child’s class teacher. We will be completing a lockdown practice this half term at some point within the school day.
Tempest Photography The children will have their photo taken on Monday as part of their class photos.
Cause Foundation I know this is very last minute but Cause Foundation have been in touch to ask for our help with their Easter campaign. They are asking for any long life items such as tins/ pasta etc (similar to Harvest collection) We will aim to deliver the food hampers to people in need by next Friday. Thanks so much in advance.

Happy Easter
This has been a very short, busy and at times challenging half term but we thank you all from the bottom of our hearts for your continuing support. St Bernadette’s is a very special place and I couldn’t be prouder of everyone who works so incredibly hard to make it the wonderful school that it is. See you next term and and have a wonderful Easter with your families,
Miss Brady
