Please save the date for our PTA organised, sparkling Diamond Ball to be held on Saturday 11 June. Further details will be available soon along with early bird tickets too.
Buy your Christmas Trees from us
This year we are selling non-drop Nordmann Fir Christmas Trees, from 3ft-8ft, to raise funds for the Rowing Club. Our aim is to raise enough to buy a Coxless Quad for the Senior Girls! Each tree is 15% less than the normal prices you would find in garden centres so to order, please go to http://schl.cc/dj or see further details here.
ALL YEAR GROUPS
Poppies for Sale
Thank you to our pupils and parents for supporting the Royal British Legion and buying a poppy or two, we will let you know how much was raised soon.
PE Kit/School Uniform Senior Girls
We note that our Junior School and Senior Boys have said that they are reverting back to bringing in their PE kit to change into when they have that lesson BUT Senior Girls are to still wear their PE kit into school on the days they have PE timetabled.
LFT and PCR Testing
A reminder to continue Lateral Flow Testing twice weekly and report results via the GOV.UK website. Also please note, LFTs are for asymptomatic testing only, so if your daughter is displaying any of three main covid symptoms (temperature, cough or loss of smell), they must take a PCR test and should not come into school until you have received the results. Please inform the school of PCR test results once received.
Face Masks
Unfortunately we are having to remind girls frequently about wearing their face masks and are still giving out many disposable face masks. Please may we ask you to discuss with your daughter the importance of bringing in her own reusable mask and wearing it to reduce the risk of Covid and keep everyone safe and in school.
Reporting Sickness/Medical Appointments/Requesting Holiday
Just a reminder to report sickness/medical appointments to girls@clairescourt.com or telephone 01628 327500 (you can leave a voicemail outside of school hours and this will get picked up once the office is open). For holiday requests please put this in writing prior to any holiday being booked.
YEAR 10 ONLY
Parents’ Evening - Thursday 18 November 6pm-8pm *Save the Date*
