This week our children achieved an overall percentage of 95 % (Nursery not included). 

 

Exciting news! Art club is set to become the Chorlton Park Art Academy. We are very lucky to have some extremely talented artists at school, and we want to celebrate their skills.

 

We hope that the Art Academy will help teach its members high order art skills using lots of different media, including paint, pastels and even multimedia digital art packages.

 

We would also like to run a series of Master Classes within the club. We hope to invite visitors with artistic talents to run 2/3 week courses in school to teach the children their skills. We would like to start the Art Academy in earnest in the Autumn Term 2009.

 

If there are any parents who feel they could offer time to run or assist in running a Master Class; please contact Miss Etchells or Mrs Wood to discuss the details.

 

We hope that additional places will become available next year and will be putting out a letter early in the new school year.

It was so good to see so many new faces at the AGM last week. Thank you to everyone for turning out. The major focus of the meeting was to elect a new committee for the coming year. Our deepest thanks to outgoing chairperson David Fox, for bags of ideas and securing vital links between the PTA and school. Big thanks also to outgoing treasurer Rebecca Howard. Since we became a registered charity it’s become an even more crucial job and the PTA couldn’t have done it without her. Luckily for us, she’s staying on as a general committee member. Heartfelt thanks also to outgoing vice-chair Farhana Vohra for her energy, commitment and constant stream of ideas over the years.

 

Now is a good time for us to thank all the people who help the PTA, from running stalls to selling raffle tickets and those of you who tirelessly come to meetings. Impossible to name you all, but we know who you are and we deeply appreciate all you do.

 

Your new PTA committee is:

Co-Chair: Angela Keane / Melanie Horton.

Mel – Bethan (4SH) and Rufus (2HD).

Angela – Sadie (3MJ), Alfie (1HS),  Iris (playgroup)

 

Vice-Chair: Anna Macgowan – Scarlett Hopewell (5HW)

 

Treasurer: Jeremy Engineer. We’re delighted to welcome him aboard – Gabriella (Reception 3)

 

Secretary: Justin Hayes. A PTA regular, now roped in for official business. Justin – Ruby Fatimilehin (4RM), Deji Hayes (1HS) and Ella Fatimilehin joining nursery in Jan.

 

We also elected some general committee members…more info on them to follow.

A final thanks to the school kitchen for the delicious food they laid on for us and to Eva Bermudez for all her work.
