Lowfield PTA needs you!
As a PTA we support the school by raising money through
such things as fayres.
Can you spare any of your time to help us out? We are in desperate need of volunteers!
Please see Mrs Hawley (Y1)
to chat about how you can
get involved.
School Holiday Dates
Medicine
Did you know that Lowfield can administer calpol and prescribed medication to your child?
If your child had been prescribed medication but is well enough to come to school, please bring the medication to the office, in the labelled box, to arrange the administering of this in school time. This will usually be at lunchtime.
If you child has a mild illness and may need calpol later in the day please come to the school office where staff will be happy to help you. Calpol will be given with parents consent if a child seems a little unwell EG. stomach ache, headache.
If you are concerned about whether or not your child can attend school click the image below to view the Healthier Together website .

Parent and Carer Questionnaire
Each year all families are given the opportunity to complete a questionnaire and share their views with school.
Questions are designed to gather information about whether parents are kept informed about their child's education and behaviour, as well as to establish if children enjoy school and feel safe.
These results are then used by school leaders to inform future decisions and make any changes to school policy.
SCHOOL DINNER MENU
Your child can either stay for school dinner, bring a packed lunch from home or go home for their dinner. A choice of school dinner can be made each morning.
Make sure you keep up to date with the latest dinner menu. Click the image below to see the weekly menus.
