Noticeboard - Friday Reminders
FRIDAY REMINDERS 16.01.2026
Dear Families,
Here are your Friday Reminders!
** IMPORTANT: SCHOOL EMAILS GOING TO SPAM/ JUNK**
We have been made aware that many parents are not receiving emails we send via Arbor as they are going into their SPAM/Junk folder.
Sometimes this happens when the recipient has previously marked Arbor emails as spam by mistake, training their email system to do so. To help reduce this issue, you might consider adding Arbor's sending email address to your safe sender or contacts list, together with reguralry checking your Spam/Junk folder and marking the School Arbor emails as "Not Spam."
If you could share this message in your Class Whatsapp group, it would be much appreciated. All important school communication is sent via Arbor email system and it's really crucial all families are able to receive it.

"THIS WEEK'S SUSTAINABILITY TIP"
Reusable Water Bottles - Did you know that every day in the UK, 10 million single-use plastic water bottles are sold? Less than half of these bottles are recycled. The same durability that makes plastic so useful also makes it nearly impossible for nature to completely break down. Instead, they break into tiny pieces called ‘microplastics’ which enter our food chains, harming ecosystems, biodiversity and our health. Switching to a reusable water bottle can save hundreds of single-use plastic bottles annually, and, in the long run it will help you save money and reduce your carbon footprint.
Less plastic waste = A healthier planet
What can you do?
· Use a metal bottle rather than a plastic one, to reduce microplastic going into your drinks
· Many UK cities now offer free water refill points. Download the free REFILL app
· Craft something useful and creative with bottles you need to buy instead of throwing them away

LOST UNIFORM - There are two clothes bins close to the school office which are full, so if you have lost a coat/jumper/lunchbox/water bottle please come in and take a look through.
