Newsletter No: 2
Date: 9 September 2008
Has a week gone already?!
Thank you to all the parents who came to my ?Meet the New Headteacher?
meeting last Tuesday. If you missed it, don?t worry as I will be holding
another one in the near future. Look out for details on the Newsletter.
DRINKS IN SCHOOL
At Broad Oak, we encourage children to bring a drink in during the day (in
addition to their lunchtime drink). It is the school policy, however, that
this drink should only be water as sugared drinks during the day can lead to
tooth decay problems. Therefore please can you make sure that if your
child/children bring a drink in for the day time, it is plain water in a
see-through, sports capped bottle. No squash or flavoured water please.
SATURDAY MORNING GYMNASTICS
Susan Di Franco runs a Saturday morning Gymnastics club at our school. It
runs from 9.00 to 10.00am for beginners and 10.00 to 11.00am for
intermediate / advanced gymnasts. If you are interested in booking a place
for your child, pop down at about 9.00am on Saturday morning and have a chat
with Susan. Prices are £11 per child for a six-week period.

ON BOARD SAILING AT BOLTON SAILING CLUB
On Saturday, 20 September, Bolton Sailing Club will be holding an open day
for Y5 and Y6 pupils of Broad Oak to try their hand at sailing. Bolton
Sailing Club is a recognised Training Centre, which means it has been
inspected by the Royal Yachting Association and meets the highest standards
of safety, with qualified instructors and a range of equipment available.
The Club will not be charging for this event; however, parents or carers
must accompany their children. All your child will need to bring is Old warm
clothing including trainers which may get wet, a change of clothing and
towel. The Club will provide boats and all safety equipment. There are
still places available on both the morning and afternoon sessions at either
9.45am-12 noon or 12.45pm-3.00pm. Please complete the attached slip if you
would like your child to take part.
CYCLING TO SCHOOL
There are some spaces available for bicycles in the school?s cycle storage
facility. Priority for cycle storage will be given to those children who
used the facility last year in the first instance. After that this will be
determined by frequency of use and then by age of the child i.e. a child who
uses their cycle daily and is one of the eldest is more likely to be given
permission to store their cycle in the storage facility. Parents must
request to have cycle storage from the school office, signing a copy of the
form attached to this newsletter. Determination as to which children will
be given storage will normally take place every September. A waiting list
will be kept if the number of places requested exceeds the number available.
Parents will be informed in writing if storage is available for your child?s
cycle along with a pass that must be attached to the cycle during storage.
Parents are encouraged to read the ?Cycling to School Policy? which is
available on the school?s website. Paper copies are available from the
school office.
SCHOOL LUNCH ? Week 1 Beginning 15 September
Please ensure that dinner money is paid on Friday if you want dinners next
week. Only £8.50 per week. Money should be given, via your child, to their
teacher in an envelope marked ?Dinner Money? with their name, class and
amount.
