Dear Parents
VE Day Party

Our final lesson of our World War II topic will be a VE day party! This will take place in school on the afternoon of Monday 1st April 2019. In preparation for this event, the children will be making rock cakes next Friday 29th. Should they have a cooking apron at home, we would appreciate them bringing it in.

Also could pupils bring in a change of clothes for the party afternoon- (what they wore on our Steam trip would be perfect). For example a typical child’s outfit could be:

Girls: a cardigan or tank top; a floral dress or a skirt / pinafore and blouse; black or brown bar shoes; white knee-length socks; long hair in two plaits, short hair combed with a centre parting and a head band or ribbon.

Boys: a v-neck top; grey, black or navy shorts; knee-length grey, brown, black, or navy socks; black or brown lace-up shoes; hair combed flat, side or centre parting.

Alternatively, pupils may like to dress up as an adult and could come to the party as a soldier, a land girl or an Air Raid Patrol Officer.

If your child has any food allergies, please make their teacher aware.

Yours sincerely

Y5/6 team

Dear Parents /Carers

Cheltenham Camera Club is once again organising the Gloucestershire Young Photographer of the Year competition, with support from Cheltenham Arts Council. The Competition, now in its 16th year showcases pupils’ photographic images in Gloucestershire's major photo exhibition.
While I am not presently running a photographic club, I am very happy to support interested pupils to select and prepare their own images. They would need to bring their camera into school (labelled), with a lead, and we can work on them. If your child is interested in doing this, please let the office know and I will get back to you.
All accepted images will be displayed again at Chapel Arts, Knapp Road (near St James Square) Cheltenham GL50 3QQ at the beginning of May alongside the Annual Exhibition of the Cheltenham Camera Club. Awards for the winning images and best Primary and Secondary School Entries will be presented by the Mayor of Cheltenham at the Opening Ceremony on Thursday 2nd May at 6.30 pm.
The Exhibition runs from Wednesday 1st May to Saturday 11th May 2019, Wednesdays to Saturdays only.
Entry is very simple - A pupil can enter one image up to A4 on any subject. Images do not have to be printed on photographic paper – it is the image that counts. All pictures must be titled and have the pupil’s
name on the back. First prize for the individual winner is £70. Entries must be received at Churchdown School by the closing date, 2nd April 2019. See attached a poster that we will share with pupils together with further details about the competition and an entry form.

Yours sincerely
