At the eleventh hour on the eleventh day of the eleventh month – we remember!
Our pupils observed a two minute silence for those who have made and continue to make sacrifices so that we can have a better today and tomorrow.
You will be aware that the government in England rejected calls to extend a voucher scheme for children to receive free school meals over the half-term and winter holidays. This puts many families in additional hardship.
A member of our school community, and with the support of Morrisons supermarket, arranged for FREE food parcels to be made available to Woodcroft families over half-term. This took place on Tuesday 27th October between 10.00am and 12.00pm.
On the day we distributed an amazing total of 64 food parcels and 40 packed lunch bags. Thank you to everyone who supported this local community event. Special thanks to Mrs Clark and her family who organised the entire initiative.
Today, we have had a wonderful climax to a most unusual term with our International Day celebrations. However, you will have to wait until after half term for that to feature in the news. This week’s issue was already jam packed as we are including the autumn activities schedule for our local children centres.
Also in Issue 392 is a reminder about the flu vaccinations programme. Year 6 families must also check that their secondary applications are finalised. Over half term we shall also be running a Battle Of The Bands (class vs class) times table competition, so encourage your child to log on to Times Tables Rock Stars every day.

We also outline our learning continuity plans for any pupil who is required to stay at home for a short period. Our Woodcroft Online Team have also provided some advice for those parents asking about buying a chromebook.
Despite the restrictions, we are determined to make school feel as normal as possible, so we have outlined the extra events and activities taking place this term. Well done to everyone for sending children to school dressed for PE on their first class PE Kit Day – we have another reminder on page 6 for next week. We are also looking to employ a Meal Time Supervisor this term. if you are interested take a look at the information included or visit … https://woodcroft.barnet.sch.uk/mealtime-supervisor-vacancies/
