• Fantastic Fred Roadshow

  Last week children from years 2 - 6 enjoyed the NHS mental health roadshow called 'Fantastic FRED'. Fantastic FRED is a resource targeted at delivering preventative mental health education in schools. It is specifically designed to inform, equip and build resilience with simple, memorable and practical ways that young children can look after their mental health.

   

  

• Thank you Broadstairs College!

  Mon 22 Nov 2021

  This year we are delighted to be working with Broadstairs college in a variety of ways. They are very kindly raising money for our PTA project of renovating one of our play areas. Last week the catering team and their students laid on 3 course dinners for staff to buy. This raised £158 to go towards the Playground project. We would like to say a huge thank you, and are looking forward to many more opportunities we have planned this year to work together.

  

• Poppy Delevingne and Save the Children visits Cliftonville

  Tue 16 Nov 2021

  We are proud to announce that Cliftonville Primary and Pre-School has achieved the Award Place 'Wellbeing award' for schools. This has been a whole school initiative along with parents and pupils and local partnerships to work towards this achievement. Today Poppy Delevingne visited us as part of her work as ambassador for Save the children. Over the last two years we have worked very closely with the charity and their linked group the 'Margate Early Learning community'. This vital partnership was a huge part of us achieving the 'Wellbeing Award' which has enabled us to provide schemes such as counselling for parents, parenting courses and laptops during lockdown plus much much more. Poppy presented us with the award and it is now proudly displayed in the Wellbeing Hub House and School Reception area.

  
   

  Although we have achieved the award we recognise that we still have much to do in furthering the support we can give to all our community. If you are in need of support in anyway please do email on psa@cliftonvilleprimary.co.uk. If you can offer any services to us to support our community further we would also love to hear from you.

• Parent Consultation Term 2

  Fri 05 Nov 2021

  Dear Parents and Carers,

   

  We are really looking forward to your first Parents Evening of the academic year. We firmly believe in building a strong partnership between home and school and therefore we will be holding virtual meetings using a website called SchoolCloud. This was trialled with our year R children and has been really successful. The virtual parents evening will NOT be in school or over the phone but accessed via a video link. If you do not have access to a mobile phone, computer or tablet, please call the school office.

   

  The system is very easy to use. You will be able to book a slot with your child’s class teacher via a text which will be sent to you on Tuesday 9^th November at 9am and slots will then be open until 7pm on Sunday 14^th November for you to book. You will receive an email confirmation of your appointment which will include a link for you to click on just before your appointment starts.

   

  Each year group will hold their consultations over one afternoon and evening during the week beginning the 15^th November 2021. The days can be found below:

   

  Year group	Parent Consultation day
  Pre-School	Thursday 18th November
  1	Wednesday 17th November
  2	Wednesday 17th November
  3	Friday 19th November
  4	Thursday 18th November
  5	Monday 15th November
  6	Tuesday 16th November

   

  Teachers will have their cameras on and we would appreciate being able to see you too so that we can discuss face to face how your child has settled into life in their new year group and the progress they are making. There is an option for you to leave a message for the class teacher prior to the meeting if there is something you wish us to particularly address. Please note, that if you miss your appointment, we are unable to offer an alternative unless there were exceptional circumstances e.g. frontline NHS workers, medical emergency. It is best to log on a few minutes early. You will be able to log on to your appointment via the email confirmation

   

  If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact the school office.
