Newsletter 12th July 2024
Dear Parents and Carers,
As we come to the end of another week we all keep saying how quickly time is flying and yet there is so much to do before the summer break!
Football
A huge well done to the girls and boys who played football against John Hampden School in the friendly match yesterday. They were fantastic, showing the true Tetsworth spirit of ‘Small School, Big Ideas’. Well done to everyone involved and thank you to those of you who came to support.
Euro Cup Final
England are in the final!! If we win it could be a once in a lifetime opportunity to see the men’s football team lift the cup! I realise that many of you will want your children to have the opportunity to watch it on Sunday night – if it goes to penalties it could be a really late bedtime!! As a result, on Monday we are going to be closing the registers later than normal. If your child wants to watch the match and needs an extra lie in on Monday then you can bring your child to school at any point up until 10:00am and they won’t be marked in as late. Please bring them to the office – the gate will shut at 8:50am as normal.
Junk Modelling donations
Sapphire class is getting through mountains of materials at the moment whilst they are thinking about recycled art. Please could you send in any items that you think might be useful for Sapphire to make more art – your recycling bin has never looked so attractive!
School Uniform
Please find attached the Earth Uniform information. If you wish to purchase any school uniform, please go to WWW.earthuniform.com, find our school and follow the instructions.
XYZ Music Academy camps and drumming
We have had a very exciting visit today – Duncan from XYZ came to show us what we can do with body percussion and drums. The children (and staff!) loved dancing in the hall together to the beat of the drums and some of us even had a go at drumming! If your child would like to take up the chance of doing lessons in school (either individually or in a group) please do sign them up for a free taster session. Look out for information to follow shortly.
Please also have a look at the attached flyers from XYZ Music Academy for the opportunity for your child to be involved in a variety of different music camps.

Oxtrail
Roxy the Oxy (as is her name in school) our ox is now in Thame library! Please go and have a look – every child and member of staff in the school has contributed to the decoration of her and we think she is the best looking ox of them all!
End of Term
I can’t believe the end of term is almost upon us. We have a few items to let you know about what we have coming up.
Final week in wrap-around care
In the final three days of term (Monday 22nd – Wednesday 24th) JR Sports are going to be putting on some extra fun activities, including a teddy bear’s picnic and Zorbs on the green. It will be great fun – please book you child in to get a space. Please note that on Wednesday 24th the wrap-around care will be from 2 – 5pm.
Ruby Class celebration evening
On Tuesday 23rd July we are inviting parents of children in Ruby class to join us in saying goodbye to the Year 6 children. We hope to be able to have it outside but may be inside depending on the weather. Please come along for a 6pm start.
Last day
Please note that we finish at 2pm on Wednesday 24th July.
We hope you have a lovely weekend and look forward to our final full week of the year!
