Dear families,

*CRICKET SUCCESS AT OLD OAK*

We have had some training from Middlesex County Cricket Club over the last few weeks. They have worked in particular with Magnolia class. Two things have really impressed me. Firstly is the talent that the children are showing for the game which I hope some will continue beyond the school. But just as importantly, how well the children have presented themselves and the school. The coaches have stressed several times how happy they are to work with the children - the children are polite, try hard and support each other. In the typical Old Oak way, the children have left visitors feeling that Old Oak is a great place to be. I have congratulated the children and am so proud of them.

*SCHOOL FINISHES ON THURSDAY 27 MAY*

This coming Thursday, 27th May, is the last day of the half term. School finishes at the normal time. Friday is an INSET day and the teachers will take time to think about your child's progress and strengths and identify next steps. School begins again on Monday 7th June.

*SEESAW TRAINING*

Following requests from parents we ran a training workshop for Seesaw yesterday. Only 2 parents came. If you are having trouble with Seesaw, we can help and support you, but please try to attend the workshops planned. If there is demand, we can run the workshop again. Please speak to your child's teacher or myself on the gate if you would like to come next time.

​

Have a safe and restful weekend.

Best wishes

Joe
