Weekly Newsletter - Friday 22nd April, 2022


Headteacher: Mrs L Nicholls 
Dear Parents and Carers,


It is wonderful to be back at school for the summer term. It is hard to believe that we are in the final term of this academic year but I can categorically state that this term is going to be a good one. Today the University of Broadford opened its doors for the first time since 2018. We are all so excited for the next 10 weeks when the children will be learning a new skill and studying new topics. Of course, we will be holding our Graduation ceremonies and look forward to seeing you all there to celebrate with the graduates of 2022!
I would like to thank so many parents for their support this week, the positive messages coming from so many of you has been overwhelming. We have surely been tested this week but we cannot thank you enough for your support and continuous commitment to Broadford. 


Summer Term After School Clubs 

After school clubs resume on Monday 25th April. Please ensure children are collected at 4.15pm. 


Parents Forum

As always, we love to hear feedback from parents, and we are thrilled to be able to re-introduce our parent forum meetings after a few years of not being able to meet together. This is an opportunity for us to be able to discuss ideas with our parent/carer community and gain the views of parents across the school. We would like to recruit one parent per class or three across each year group and then we can be sure that the views of parents across the school are being heard. We will be hosting a short introductory meeting this term and start planning for September. If you would like to volunteer to represent parents in your child’s class/year group and you feel that you are able to commit to an hour or so each term, please register your interest here.  


Polling Day School Closed

On Thursday 5th May  the school is being used as a polling station and will be closed for all pupils.


Summer Sun

We are very lucky to be experiencing this warmer weather so early in the Summer term. I would like to ask all parents to ensure that children have sun protection applied before they arrive at school. . It is also recommended that children bring caps/hats into school to wear during outdoor times. We will ensure that pupils have access to plenty of water throughout the day to keep them fully hydrated. Thank you for your support and co-operation in this matter.
