HAPPY NEW YEAR Welcome to 2025! I hope you all had a wonderfully relaxing and joy filled Christmas break and are ready to get back to normal and routine as we head into 2025. It has been lovely welcoming the children back and hearing their excitement and Christmas stories. We are talking to the children about New Year Resolutions and helping them to think about the things they want get better at this year. We have had some excellent plans including learning times tables, getting better at handwriting, turning up to football practice every week to getting better at Fortnite! During Collective Worship we will be thinking about Courage in the first half term and Forgiveness in the second half term. Our next Parents Evenings will be in March but please remember that, should you wish to talk to your child’s teacher about learning or behaviour, you can make an appointment to see the teacher at any time. Please contact the school office should you wish to do this.

Thank you! In the final Newsletter of 2023-24 I would like to offer my thanks to a number of people. Firstly, thank you to the amazing staff who go above and beyond to meet the needs of children, parents and each other in school. We are very fortunate to have dedicated teachers, teaching assistants, pastoral staff, office staff, kitchen staff, welfare staff and premises staff. Without these people St Luke’s would not be the wonderful school it is. Thank you to the children for their hard work and excitement in learning. It is their enthusiasm to learn new things that makes us all work so hard for them. I am so proud of the progress that every child has made this year. Thank you to all of you parents. A school only succeeds when we work in partnership with staff and parents to provide opportunities for children. Thank you for keeping communication open, for helping your child in their learning both academically and socially and thank you for supporting us in all that we do.

A huge well done to all of the children in school, especially our new starters. The new children have settled quickly and are doing incredibly well in school, partly thanks to the kindness and great role modelling from the children right across school. I couldn’t be more proud! The children certainly live our Bible passage from Luke 10:27.
