Dear Parents and Carers,
Easter Service by Year 3
We are bursting with pride as we reflect on this week's Easter Service at St. Bridget’s Church. A massive well done to our Year 3 pupils, who took the lead with such confidence, grace, and beautiful singing. We would also like to extend a huge thank you to the Parish Centre. Their hospitality was the "icing on the cake"—quite literally! The tea, coffee, and delicious cakes provided after the service made for a wonderful opportunity for our families to gather and reflect together.
The "Book Look" Buzz
There was an unmistakable energy in the air during our recent after-school Book Look. It was wonderful to see so many parents and carers sitting down with their children to review their progress so far. The "excited buzz" in the classrooms was a testament to how proud the children are of their achievements. Thank you for being such an active part of your child’s learning journey.
Important: Transition to the Compass App
We are currently in the process of migrating to our new Management Information System (MIS), Compass. To date, we have only had 95 people log in. If you haven't done so yet, please search your inbox for our recent email and follow the instructions to get set up.
It is vital that all families gain access as soon as possible. Over the coming weeks, we will be moving away from ParentPay. All bookings and payments for clubs, school trips, and dinner money will be handled exclusively through Compass.
OPAL Play & "Freedom Fridays"
Our commitment to OPAL (Outdoor Play and Learning) continues to transform our break times. The children are thoroughly enjoying the move toward more flexible play, and our "Freedom Fridays" have been a resounding success!
The improvements don't stop there. Over the Easter break, we will be busy further developing the school site. We are particularly excited to introduce a huge new sandpit at the back of the school, which will utilize 8 tons of sand for creative play! We will keep you posted with our progress over the Easter break.
Community Event: Smartphone Free Childhood
We would like to invite you to an upcoming relaxed parent talk titled "Let's talk about our kids and their tech". This event is part of the Smartphone Free Childhood movement on the Wirral. It is an open, honest conversation about parenting in the digital age, including updates on how the movement is progressing across local Primary and Secondary schools.
