Newsletter 30.1.2015 - Sticklepath Community School
W/E 30th January 2015 Welcome Changes for 2015 Building work around Woodville and the surrounding area continues at a pace and more families are moving into their new Sticklepath homes. This, combined with our growing positive reputation in Barnstaple, have increased the number of enquiries for places in the school. In consultation with the Local Authority our intake in September 2015 has been increased from 50 Reception children to 60 meaning we will have two complete Foundation classes. From September we are also going to have two Year 1 and two Year 2 classes, so for the first time our Key Stage 1 children will not be in mixed year groups. The Education Authority has agreed to provide two new classrooms that will be ready for use in September 2016. Until then the school will ‘re-jig’ some of its current space (staff and ICT rooms) to allow for the extra classroom needed in September 2015. We will also be looking to employ a new Key Stage 1 teacher from September this year. The forecast is for the number of children in the Sticklepath catchment area to continue to increase in the future. The next phase for the school will be to roll out a two class intake for each year group across Key Stage 2. We will keep you informed during this exciting phase of Sticklepath Community School’s development. PTFA NEWS PTFA AGM Thankyou to all those who attended Thursday’s meeting.

Hopefully it will start again next Autumn. After discussions with Mark (the coach) we have decided to postpone the football club until Wednesdays after the half term to give the pitch a chance to settle down. It will be lighter and hopefully drier and warmer! Sorry about this but delaying the club will mean that they will get a good run of proper football. If it does turn out to be wet the netball club will have finished so the hard court can also be used. Year 5/6 will follow after the Easter holidays. T-Shirts Thank you to those of you that have ordered the new PE t-shirts. They should have been sent home via classes this week. Please can you make sure that the child's name is on the label to avoid lots of lost property! If anyone else would like to purchase any there are a few spares in each size. min@sticklepath- Gym Club ASL With 98.6% attendance KS1 Gym Timetable: Monday, 26th January DMK Monday, 9th February With 100% attendance Well done!!!
