General information for parents

Ask me anything

Ask me anything is a chance for parents to ask questions to Mrs Gross and Dan Sacker (our chair of governors). Parents are invited to submit questions before or to ask any question on the night.

Parents Evening – Autumn and Spring term

Parents are invited to speak to their child’s teachers (both secular and kodesh) and discuss their progress. These meetings are currently held on line.

Information Evenings

In September each class has a Curriculum evening which gives the parents a chance to meet the teacher and find out about what will be taught in their class during the year.

Assemblies

Assemblies are held on a Monday and Friday morning. Year 6 parents are invited to attend the Friday assembly when their child is taking part.

Sports Day

Taking place in the summer term, this is one of the highlights of the school calendar. All children from Reception to Year 6 take part in a host of activities from team races to individual track and field activities. Parents are invited to attend and even take part in the parent’s 100m should you wish! This is being held again this year in Allianz Park.

School questionnaire

This questionnaire is sent out annually to parents to fill out anonymously. It asks for parental feedback on a variety of issues at the school, ranging from bullying to homework and extra-curricular activities. The results are analysed and provide invaluable feedback for future planning.

Parent Class Representatives

At the start of the school year parents can nominate themselves to be their class reps.  The two parent class reps provide a link between the class teacher and the parents. They ensure that all parents feel included and up to date on class events and issues – they may organize a coffee morning for parents to socialize and also ensure that parents know about up and coming PTA events. They are also expected to attend the Parent’s forum and encourage parents to do so.

The PTA

The main focus of the PTA is to fundraise for the school and organise social events for both parents and children which include the Chanukah Funday and school calendar. Projects such as refurbishing our school library, providing shelters in the playgrounds and purchasing new laptops, would never have happened without the efforts of the PTA. Every parent is welcome to come along to PTA meetings – you don’t have to be invited – just come along, fresh ideas are always very welcome. Details of upcoming meetings can be found in the school newsletter and on the PTA Noticeboard which is just outside the school office.
