Keeping in touch

CCPS Colour Logo rev.090604(2)

We like to keep our parents, children and local community up to date with all the latest school news and information. Our main forms of communication are below.

Please note our normal working hours are 0800 - 1630hrs  Monday to Friday during term time and we do not usually deal with correspondence or enquiries via our online systems outside of these hours unless they are of an urgent nature

Our Website - www.carltoncolville.suffolk.sch.uk

Information about the curriculum, lots of photographs showcasing the children’s learning and WOW moments, school policies and general information can all be accessed via our school website. We always welcome feedback on our website so if there is something you would like to see please get in touch.



Class Dojo is used in school by the Class Teachers to keep in touch with parents and provide regular updates of exciting things going on in class by using the Class Story feature.  Class Teachers 'invite' parents by sending and invite to their nominated email address at the start of the school year in September.

 


Nursery and Reception Classes use Tapestry to share classroom work and messages with parents. Parents are given Tapestry login details when their child joins the school.



 

As well as our website, we love to showcase our children's achievements on our twitter feed  @ccpschool  If you use Twitter give us a follow!

Parent Consultation Meetings

We hold parent meetings during the Autumn and Spring term. We believe that this provides you with the best opportunity to discuss individual's progress with class teachers.  Appointments can be made via our School Ping app. We are also happy to arrange meetings with individual parents at a convenient time if you there are any matters you wish to discuss. In this instance speak with the class teacher or the school office to arrange.

‘The Acorn’ Newsletters

‘The Acorn’ is a bi-weekly newsletter containing a variety of school news, pupil achievements, learning opportunities and information designed to inform and support parents and children outside of the school. Copies are always available from the school website within the Parents section. Paper copies can also be viewed and picked up from our main office. A message is sent out via School Ping when a new Acorn is published. 

Notice boards

We have several large notice boards around the school which contain information on forthcoming events and school information.

Letters Home

We regularly send home letters regarding sports tournaments, trips, news, and events. Please make sure you read the letters carefully and return any permission slips promptly. Letters home are normally sent electronically and permission slips completed via school ping.

Assemblies and Productions

All classes participate in a range of assemblies, productions and performances during the year. These include; nativity performances, Year 6 leavers production, Year 5 democracy assembly, Rocksteady performances, music performances (both in school and externally) e.g. Snape Maltings,  a local care home and at our local church.

Annual Pupil Reports

All parents will receive a detailed report of their child's progress in the second half of the summer term. This focuses on all curriculum subjects as well as reporting on aspects such as attendance, learning behavior and effort.

    Over the next 2 days we will be hosting 4 Sports Day sessions that will include all the children. When you arrive, please can you go to your child’s starting event. Stakes with numbers 1-8 have been positioned around the field. Please then position yourself anywhere outside of the white oval. If you are intending to enter the ladies or men’s sprint race, please remember to wear appropriate footwear (I’d also recommend stretching before your run too!). Thank you to our ‘Friends Committee’ who will be serving drinks at the refreshment table. We hope you have an enjoyable time. Best wishes

    Ukraine Collection
    Good evening Morrisons in Pakefield have recently announced they are collecting to support the Ukraine Appeal. As a school we would like to support their appeal and act as a collection point for the items requested. If you would like to show your support, any donations should be in school by Tuesday lunchtime to enable us to get them to Morrisons by their deadline of Wednesday 9th (if more convenient for yourself you can drop directly to the store.) I have attached their list of acceptable items. Due to the nature of the items, please drop your donation at the school office where it can be stored securely. If it’s more convenient for you to make a cash donation please make sure the envelope is clearly marked and I will buy items in store while dropping off donations. Many thanks

    Urgent Weather Update
    Dear Parents Having just received further information about the impending storm, we are now advising that all children should be collected at 12:30pm today. The highest winds, in our area, are forecasted to be between 1pm-4pm. All children will have had their lunch by 12:30pm ensuring they have eaten before they leave school. The school site will be unlocked and the parent car park can be used as normal. Reception, Year 1, Year 2, Year 3 and Year 4 children should be collected from their usual classroom door. (Year 4 children who are free-walkers will need to be collected today by an adult due to the severity of the storm). All Year 5 and Year 6 children should be collected today by an adult (even if they are usually a free walker - due to the severity of the storm) from the main school office. If you are unable to collect your child at 12:30pm, we will look after your child until the end of the school day (please note that 3pm will be during the peak of the storm). If you wish to collect your child earlier than 12:30pm please come to the main school office. This is an ever changing situation and we hope everyone stays safe. If you have any questions, please contact the school office. Best wishes

    Weather Update
    Dear Parents In light of the severe weather warning today, and the delay in the storm hitting our area, we have decided that whilst we will remain open for those parents who still wish to send their children into school, we will also provide remote learning today for those pupils whose parents would prefer to keep them at home. If you do send your child in school, you are welcome to collect them at anytime if you feel it is the best and safest option. Please contact the school office if you decide to keep your child off school today. All these absences will be authorised. We hope you all stay safe at this time. Best wishes
