Welcome back for the new term which starts on Wednesday 9 September. Please would established pupils (Years 3-8) go to the hall, where their form teachers will collect them. Established pupils Nursery, Rec, 1 & 2 please go straight to your form rooms (or early birds before 8.45).. New children please come into the school reception.
THANK YOU!
A huge thank you to the parents who have transformed the playground into a fun, colourful area. We all appreciate the time taken to improve our environment.
Midsummer Night’s Dream Company
The Shakespeare in School Company will be taking part in a workshop at Norden Farm in Maidenhead from 13.30-16.00. If parents wish they may collect their children in Maidenhead, otherwise we will be back at Dolphin at 16.30pm
The following school policies are now published on our website: Safeguarding children; Curriculum; Discipline; Exclusion; Reward and Sanctions; Anti-Bullying; Health and Safety on School Visits and our Complaints Procedure, which includes the number of formal complaints before a panel in the last school year (none).
The arrangements for the education and welfare provision for pupils with statements and for whom English is an additional language are available on request.
The Staff List and Qualifications and Destinations of Leavers are also available to view.
Club Lists for the Autumn Term are on the club board in the Cloisters. Please check carefully which clubs your child will be going to and the days. As usual clubs will start on the first day of term. If you wish to make changes or have any queries, please see Vivien in the office rather than the teacher running the club. Whilst we make every effort to run the clubs, there may be the occasional unforeseen circumstances which will oblige us to make changes.
Please may we remind parents to give a written note for all absences to the school office.
The 2009/10 Extended Synopsis are published on the website within the Dolphin Community Section under Teaching and Learning. You will need to be logged on to access this information. Log on details will remain unchanged.
