The Insider Newsletter
Summer Term 2010
Newsletter 10 - 1st July 2010
Dear Parents,
This week we enjoyed our final Music Assemblies of the school year with some super performances from Julia Andronikos, Aidan Jackivicz, Emmeline Beekenkamp (piano), Georgia Hutcheon, Alexander Mehta (recorder), Giacomo Prideaux, Lily Coates, Lily Whitman (violin), Xenia Clegg-Littler (guitar), Molly Monger (flute) and a wonderful piano duet by Kara Jackivicz and Julian Beekenkamp. On Monday morning we enjoyed our Moving-Up Morning when the children from Reception to Class 5 spent time in their new classrooms with their new teachers for next term. It was super to see so many of you at the FoCH Summer Drinks Party last night; what a wonderful occasion. I would like to say a huge thank you to Jussie Hall who has been an incredible FoCH Chair this year and also to all the Reps for all their support and hard work throughout the year - THANK YOU! I would like to welcome and thank Wendy Miller who has kindly agreed to take over the role in September. I am delighted to attach the Class 6 Newsletter with this week's Insider where you can enjoy reading all about their two fabulous residential visits this term. I am also pleased to attach a Charity Update letter from Isobel Walters, our Charity Coordinator. As this will be the final Insider Newsletter of this academic year, I would like to take this opportunity to thank you all for such a wonderful, happy and successful year - I cannot believe how quickly the year has flown by! Thank you.

Exciting School Road Safety News!
We are delighted to inform you that after lengthy discussions with RBKC "School Keep Clear" road markings will be installed on the 4th and 5th August. You will find a map on the Parents' Notice Board in the School Entrance Hall outlining where the markings will go. It also shows 'resident' and 'pay and display' parking within five minutes walk. These School Keep Clear road markings will help raise awareness of the school to drivers in the area and encourage them to reduce their speed. They will also keep the corner clear for children to arrive and leave school safely. No-one will be allowed to park or stop on these markings during the restricted times. Cameron House families will receive a detailed letter in the next few weeks which will explain the full implications of the Keep Clear Road markings. We are sure you will share our delight at this wonderful news.
Final Week of Term
Please note there will be no Sports Lessons or Clubs in the final week of term. Please can children bring in a plastic bag on Monday and Wednesday to use to take home any art work, exercise books or remaining items - thank you. On the last day of the term (Wednesday 7th July) children may wear "home clothes" if they would like to and do not need to bring in their school bags on this day.
