We hope you have had a wonderful summer holiday and your child has had a great first week back at Monteney. I hope you have been able to visit the school and see how it has been transformed into Narnia. The children have been

really inspired by the displays around school and this is evident in the fantastic learning they have been doing. It has been a fabulous start to the

year and we hope this continues throughout the year.

It is really important that your child is in school every day. We reward good attendance in many ways at Monteney. Before the summer, those children who had achieved 100% attendance for the year had a special trip to Magna. They had a great time.
