Swalecliffe Community Primary School

Hope you are all having a lovely Sunday! This did go out in the weekly newsletter a couple of weeks ago with transition arrangements but a reminder for our current Year R to Year 5 families ... Tomorrow (Monday 7th July), after school, classrooms will be open for your children to show you where their new rooms are and where you can meet them at the end of the day from September. Collect your child as normal at the end of the day and they can show your their new rooms. They will be open from 3.15 to 3.45.

Year R certainly have green fingers! Their new garden area is bursting with life and we are looking forward to the harvest next term. Keep an eye on those pumpkins and beans!

Don't miss out on this amazing raffle - get your tickets as soon as you can!

The Sports Day and interhouse winners are Herons!! Well done to all the houses but a well-deserved win for the yellows! All the children were utterly brilliant!

Whitstable Carnival 2025 preparations are underway with our Year 4 children again this year. The theme of the Carnival is 'Peter Cushing' and we will be embracing Frankenstein and the Daleks as our inspiration this year. We are very thankful to members of the Whitstable Carnival Committee who have come into school to support Year 4 with their creations. Year 4 families please save the date - Saturday 2nd August, early evening - to come and join in as Year 4 Swalecliffe children participate in the carnival procession, which was a great success last year! Further details to follow. (Although the group says 2024, it is very much for this year!) (
