Dear Friends,

Undoubtedly many families will have concerns regarding the cost of living crisis.  There is a set of useful pages regarding help and support for families on the council website – www.shropshire.gov.uk/cost-of-living-help

This week, Mrs Norris, Mr Lack and Mrs Oxford took 12 KS2 pupils to an Archery Festival at The British Ironworks Centre. Pupils really enjoyed trying out archery and improving their skills.

Mrs Norris runs a weekly Archery Club with KS2 pupils, in which she teaches pupils all about the bows, arrows and they have the chance to become budding archers!

If your child might be interested in starting archery, we can point you in the direction of Start Archery Start Archery – Begin Your Archery Journey where you can find out how to try out archery in the local area!

Please read this letter we have received from Ruyton XI Towns Parish Council:

The Parish Council would like to publicise the fact that you and the staff at St John the Baptist and Bomere Heath Primary Schools have been nominated as local covid heroes of 2021. We thought you might like to publish this good news via your next newsletter.
The parish communities and the parents and carers of all the children at the Ruyton and Bomere Heath primary schools owe you and your colleagues a real debt of gratitude.

The way you conducted and maintained the levels of teaching, structured each school day and provided a range of distance learning tools and methods to suit the wide range of ages and abilities was second to none.

The dedication of everyone working and volunteering at both schools was truly tested and you triumphed in the most challenging of circumstances. We applaud you all.
The Lord Lieutenant’s Garden Party takes place locally in June and offers a unique opportunity for sterling work such as this to be publicly recognised. We trust you will be in a position to attend, enjoy the event and represent your fabulous team.

With kind regards,
Ruyton-XI-Towns Parish Council

We are happy to welcome the pupils of Bomere Heath CE Primary School back for the start of the Summer Term!

There is so much going on this term – Sports Day, trips, a residential to Liverpool, getting the pupils ready to move on to their next class (or secondary school!), clubs, SATs tests, school council meetings…the list goes on!

Please remember that we welcome comments and questions – please see your child’s  class teacher or make an appointment via the school office!
