Next week the school will have a focus on safety and in particular E-Safety (Electronic Safety). We will be reminding pupils of how to stay safe whilst working online and in the safe use of social media and apps. We have added some useful documents and links on our school website which I encourage you to take a look at. This includes our revised E-Safety Policy which includes acceptable use of the internet which you and your child would have agreed to at the start of the academic year. Also attached with this newsletter is ‘ A parent and carer’s guide to age ratings of apps and games’. I hope this document is of use to you.

As reported last week a number of our staff were competing in the Cardiff Half-Marathon. They all managed to complete the race and are wearing their medals proudly. They would like to thank all of you for the tremendous support and kind donations to the various charities. We are very proud of them here at Mary Immaculate School.

A number of our staff will be running the Cardiff half-marathon on Sunday Oct 1^st. Mrs Evans, Miss Austin, Mrs Street and Mrs Blair will be raising funds for Guide Dogs UK.

We wish them well. Further information can be found by clicking the link below:-

The final Mass of the school year will take place in the school hall on Monday July 17th. It starts at 10.30am.

The annual Leaver’s Assembly led by our Year 6 pupils will be held on the last day of term – Friday July 21st, starting at 9.30am. Immediately following will be our presentation of trophies and awards, involving pupils from all classes. All are welcome.

Sports Day Our Key Stage 2 Sports Day went ahead yesterday in fine weather. The pupils served up wonderful performances in an excellent sporting spirit. At the end of an entertaining afternoon, the ‘Cahir Cup’ went to the Blue Team. It was a close event and all hinged on the final race. Congratulations to all the pupils and a big thank you to all our Year 6 helpers, staff past and present and all spectators for making it such an enjoyable event.

If your child received a shield during presentation day last July and have not yet returned them to school, could I ask that they be returned to the office as soon as possible please?

Don’t forget to wear your pyjamas on Friday June 16^th. There is a £1 fine for everyone in pyjamas – including staff with all proceeds going to our Just Giving Fund.

Year 6 returned safely, if not exhausted, late yesterday afternoon after a busy few days at Sealyham activity centre. They had a thoroughly enjoyable time and I would like to thanks Mr Oulton, Miss Austin and Miss Abel for giving of their time to accompany the children.
