The Music Festival is now well under way, the Choir, Percussion and Talented Tinies have all performed their pieces and we are grateful to the army of parents who have helped with transport and supported the children so far. Next week is VERY busy; Monday is the Ocarina Group at The Riverside, Tuesday is a very busy day – Dance Group are performing at The Riverside on Tuesday morning and then in the afternoon the Year 5 children are performing their Choral Speaking piece also at The Riverside. Wednesday the Woodwind Groups are at The Music Centre, soloists are in the morning, followed by the ensemble and the duets are in the afternoon. The final group will be Brass who are performing at the Town Hall on Friday afternoon. Once again, parents are very welcome to go alonhg and watch the performances free of charge.

There is an important meeting for the Robinwood children on Wednesday at 5.00pm. It is essential that you attend this meeting even if your child has previously been to Robinwood as there are changes this year.

On Friday we welcome Mr Sawle from the Rotary Club to talk again about the Boxes for Romania. Please keep an eye out for information about this.

Well done to the children who were presented with the Achievement Award last Friday.
