• Anti-Bullying Week

  Fri 18 Nov 2022

  Anti-Bullying Week has concluded today with children Daring to be Different! We are all proud of our differences in school and celebrate our diversity. In fact, we acknowledge that the only thing that is the same about us is that everyone is different! 

   

  However, we know that unkindness and bullying can occur because of a perceived difference. This week our children have learned what bullying is, how to prevent it and the role they can have as a by-stander. We want our children to be enabled and empowered to stand up for what is but to rely on the security and backing of trusted adults.

   

  If you have concerns about bullying, please refer to our Anti-Bullying page where you will find useful information.

• Friends of Langar Church of England Primary School

  Thu 17 Nov 2022

  We are starting to think about Christmas! And we need your help. 

   

  We have two fundraising events planned for the Christmas period and would love two teams of Friends to take a lead organising these.

   

  The first is a Christmas hamper raffle. Last year staff donated items to create a 'Cosy Night in Hamper' which raised £250! However, we would ask this team to decide how to put the prize together, to publicise it and sell tickets. 

   

  The second is Christmas Film Night on Friday 16th December after school. This will follow the traditional carol service that we will be holding in church at 2.00pm. We would love a team of Friends to plan and run this event, which will include choosing a suitable film, deciding how many tickets to sell, carrying out the risk assessment, publicising the event, buying refreshments and supervising on the day. 

   

  If you would like to be in one of these teams, please email office@langar.notts.sch.uk by Friday 25th November. Mark your email 'FAO Mrs George Christmas' as she will co-ordinate the teams and put you all in touch with each other. 

• OFSTED Information Evening

  Thu 17 Nov 2022

  Thank you so much for your honest and open communication with us following the publication of our OFSTED report. As we predicted, it was received with a mix of emotions from across the community.

   

  The information evening on Tuesday was a wonderful opportunity to settle some of this emotion and to share with you our experiences of the inspection, the evidence that was used to draw the statements in the report, the views of the LA and the diocese and the plan moving forward. I have shared my power point on the website so that those who could not attend receive similar information Ofsted and Performance Data | Langar C of E Primary School (secure-primarysite.net). The LA and the diocese spoke with confidence and positivity about our school, and it is certainly worth talking to other parents who were there to get these messages from the people who heard them. 

   

  We will continue to keep your updated about the progress we are making towards our School Improvement Plan milestones (end goals) via the newsletter and the Head Teacher's Report to Governors (which will be published on the website). 

   

  We ask you to continue to work in partnership with us and welcome your communication. If you have any personal worries or concerns about your child, please get in touch with their teacher. If you feel you still have unanswered questions that were not covered during the evening, or by the presentation on the website, please get in touch with me and I will do my best to address them. 

   

  Thank you for your love, understanding and support.

   

• Anti-Bullying Week and Children in Need

  Fri 11 Nov 2022

  Next week is anti-bullying week. Anti-Bullying Week 2022 is coordinated in England and Wales by the Anti-Bullying Alliance and has the theme Reach Out. 

   

  Children will explore ways to prevent and respond to bullying throughout the week and we will share their work, thoughts and ideas with you on completion. 

   

  Friday 18th is also Children in Need Day, and we are going to end the week with a non-school uniform day with the theme 'Dare to be Different'! We want children to celebrate their uniqueness and be proud to do so which will fit well with the anti-bullying theme. We welcome a contribution for the charity and recommend £1. 

   

• Parent Governors

  Fri 11 Nov 2022

  We are delighted to inform you that Andrew Bunney and Katrina Bradley are going to be our new parent governors. We were delighted to have five strong candidates and thank them all for their willingness to stand. 

• House Captain Values Spotters

  Thu 10 Nov 2022

  The House Captains rewarded the children they had spotted upholding the school values across the past two weeks today. It was wonderful to hear their accounts of how kind our children are, how they take care of each other and display respect during lunch, playtime and collective worship.
