wear yellow day
A reminder that school will be holding a 'Wear Yellow Day' on Wednesday 31st March - the last day of this term - in memory of Delilah Clemons.
Thank you to those of you who have already generously contributed to Ferncumbe's Just Giving page, set up in memory of Delilah and fundraising for the Children's Liver Disease Foundation. Please do feel free to make contributions to this page (link below), rather than your child bringing money in to school on ‘Wear Yellow Day’.
Thank you also for your messages of condolence and reflection, which can be read on our school website ‘Memories’ page. The family have found these words of great comfort.
I know you will join me in sending love, and keeping the Clemons family in our thoughts and prayers.

wellbeing in the woods!
All classes in school had the chance to visit Forest School last week. It served as the perfect opportunity for children to reconnect with each other, having spent so much time apart this year. A range of activities were carried out, including an exciting array of teambuilding challenges and some impressive artwork inspired by nature!

Support for Parents/Carers
We appreciate that this is a particularly difficult time for parents/carers. As a way of providing additional support we have available, between Monday to Friday, a text messaging service which is staffed by experienced nurses. Parents/carers are free to text the nurse and to discuss any concerns they have regarding their child.
With very best wishes for a lovely weekend, and for a peaceful Easter break which is almost upon us,
Tracey Webb, Deputy Headteacher
