Thank You Wraparound – Teacher Day, Friday 23rd October We are currently taking bookings and still have availability for Abbey Oaks on Teacher Day. The cost is £24 (8am-6pm) OR £12 (8am-1pm or 1pm-6pm). If you wish to book your child/children for a half or full day session please contact Mrs McGrath in the office. Attendance Unfortunately the attendance in school appears to be dropping considerably, we are aware that there are several viruses and sickness bugs going around at the moment, but if your children are well enough please send them to school. Holidays in term time and sickness combine to take attendance look poor. Our target is 95% and at the moment we are only achieving 89.5%. Thank you.
