Year 1 Family Lunch - 02.07.18

It was good for my child to show us his school. Lunch was very enjoyable (pasta). Thanks to the cook and kitchen staff. A lot of work goes into an event like this, so thanks to all involved.

Family lunch was really good! The menu was good - chocolate crisp cake, etc. Nice to eat with my grandchild and others.

Lovely to spend time with my daughter adn get to see her at lunchtime. I don't often get the opportunity to attend daytime stuff at school, so I was really pleased to be able to.

Lovely family lunch! The food was lovely! So nice to spend time with my child.

It is a lovely opportunity to be involved and be able to attend things that the school organise.

I must say that family lunch was, again, excellent. Very well organised and all children very happy and smiling - congratulations to all the staff involved.

Parent Maths Workshop - 27.02.18

Good idea to help parents understand what is expected at what stage

Maths - addition / subtraction. Interesting methods which I would not have done unless I had attended this session

Information session - perhaps breakdown into keystages

Really good learning afternoon - it has been such a long time since I went to school and my old fashioned methods are no longer any good. This new curriculum is so much more explanatory for the children. Excellent once again Cledford.

Excellent maths workshop! Really helps inform parents to help them progress. Look forward to other workshops. Thank you

Maths workshop is a great idea - maybe breakdown KS1 & KS2 separately? Well presented. Thank you!

Parent maths workshop - brilliant insight into the different methods at all levels. Great explanation! Thank you

Deputy head, Mrs Frater, showed us around all the areas and provided all the details we could have asked for. Great environment and looks like a promising school to let our children develop at.

Deputy head showed us around. Very informative. Lovely to see the kids in the school environment.

So glad we came to have a look round the school. The provision is excellent and all of the children presented as hapy and engaged in their learning. Thank you for your time Mrs Frater.

Thank you very much for making us feel welcome.

My daughters both attend Cledford Primary School and I can't fault it. We choose Cledford for the staff, breadth of curriculum and positive, friendly atmosphere. My children have amazing opportunities at the school. There is always something going on, it's worth checking the website to get a feel for what's going on at the school, you can also see how many events they get involved in.

Love the new homework style. We are having great fun and planning which one we can do each week around the weekend activities. Thank you. PS Year 4 sharing assembly was great!

The bedtime 'Journeyman' was a fantastic idea! Isla & Cara loved it and couldn't stop talking about it. The hot chocolate was a nice touch. More of this please and thanks to all who organised it!

We absolutely love the new homework system! She gets to choose which project she wants to do, we discuss ideas together and decide on how much work she wants to put into it. We are enjoying this new system nearly as much as our daughter is!

We are really pleased with our daughter's swimming lessons with Mrs Barnett. In September she was in the bottom set, by January she was in the top set, in the deep end! She really enjoys her lessons.

We all enjoyed the story time with the 'Journey Man'. Thank you to everyone for making it so much fun!

Well done on a brilliant author's week! What a great idea! My 3 children loved the visiting author (and hot chocolate), the great idea of decorated t-shirts on world book day (so much easier) and focussing on one author per class! Best of all, they have LOVED the reading challenge. Brilliant work all staff!!

Awesome idea for world book day! Well done Cledford.

 

Whole School Assembly & Fashion Show:

Ahhh, how awesome! You guys always go above and beyond. A fashion show, that's so lovely and gets the whole scool involved. Can't wait to see photos.

Brilliant idea for world book day. Well done Cledford!

Such a good idea instead of having to find a costume and the kids get to show off their artistic flare.

Fantastic idea....kids looked fab this morning going into school in their t-shirts

Great idea! Kids loved the t-shirts!

Great idea!

I just wanted you to know how distressed I am to hear that school staff are being verbally abused when dealing with poor parking.
Personally I think there should be a zero tolerance approach to verbal abuse of teachers. I mean, what kind of role modelling is that for the children of these parents on how to respect a teacher. But, worse still, giving verbal abuse for keeping our kids safe! This is just atrocious.
I have nothing but the utmost respect for all you do for our children and I'm sorry you are having to put up with this. Thank you to all you do.

I love what you did for the dog fouling, sending leaflets home to report and the poster campaign.
