We are so proud of all the hard work you’ve done so far, and are looking forward to sharing an amazing final year in SJB with you!

It is important that we all look after our health and wellbeing and we're looking forward to our meditation sessions again.

School Bags & Homework

It is important that you come to school each day prepared. Pack your bag carefully the night before.

You can bring your own pencils, rubber, sharpener, coloured pencils, glue stick and tissues. You will definitely need coloured pens and highlighters.

Remember your water bottle, packed lunch (if required), and healthy break (a piece of fruit or sandwich). 

**Do not bring any food containing nuts as some boys and girls have nut allergies.

P.E. day is Thursday  

On P.E. day you will come to school wearing navy tracksuit bottoms, a white polo t-shirt, a school jumper and trainers.

When we resume swimming lessons, you will need a bag with a towel, swim gear and flip-flops/crocs for hygiene reasons. Swimming cap/goggles may also be brought if you wish.

This is a very special year and I am looking forward to sharing the wonderful things we have planned for you!
