Non-uniform day 23 October
On Friday the 23rd October as part of our Harvest festival, we will be having a non-uniform day in aid of the charity ShelterBox. ShelterBox is a charity that provides emergency support, including food and temporary housing for families who have been made homeless. They are currently running an appeal to support people who have been made homeless due to the effects of coronavirus. If you are able, please come in non-uniform and bring £1 to donate to this important charity.

Good Work Assembly
We had our very first socially distanced Good Work Assembly on the field last Friday. Every class sat in their bubbles to keep safe and Mr Smith led the assembly from the middle.
Planting an Oak Tree
Year 6 have been tree planting this week. The tree was donated by Yvonne Abbott, a friend of the school, and a plaque will be donated by the PTFA to remember the Lulworth Class of 2020 and all the challenges they have faced.
Primary Times Magazine
We have distributed Primary Times Dorset to families for a number of years now, the aim being to provide details of all the fun, exciting and educational events going on locally during the summer holidays.
This year, things being as they are, we are unable to do so. Instead for the summer we would like to offer parents links to virtual things to do and learning for children.
The contributors will all be from the local community and economy. The idea being to offer a regular update and refreshed information throughout the summer as and when we receive it.
Below is a link for our first E-Newsletter. When you click on the link you can also choose to take up the option to receive future emails direct from us.
