14.05.21: Walk to School Week
Dear Parents/Carers,
Walk to School Week - 17th to 21st May 2021
We are excited to be taking part in Walk to School Week next week.
We all know the health benefits of walking so please help us this week to reduce congestion by supporting children in being more active and help reduce lower carbon emissions during this Walk to School Week.
We would like to encourage all our pupils to try and walk, cycle or scoot to school during this week. If it’s not possible to walk all the way, then it would be great if you could park 10 minutes away from school and walk or scoot the last part of your journey. If your child travels to school by bike or scooter, please ensure the bike/scooter is taken home as we are still unable to store these on the school site due to COVID-19 restrictions.
Here is a video link for you to watch with your child https://youtu.be/JPVqaoeb38s
Kind regards,
Mrs Cranko
KS2 Team Leader
19.01.21: Piece of the Jigsaw
We are excited to share a school community project that we would love your child to take part in. The document below provides an outline of an individual jigsaw puzzle piece. At Millfield we frequently discuss the importance of individuals working together as a team. As COVID-19 has kept many of us apart this activity aims to visually join us back together like a jigsaw puzzle.
Please see further instructions in the document below and we look forward to receiving your child's completed 'puzzle piece' as well as sharing the finished project.
The above letter shares important information for the reporting of COVID-19 cases during the Christmas brake.

Dear Parents/Carers
Next week Millfield will be taking part in Anti Bullying week. The children will have an assembly and discuss what bullying is. To recognise that everyone is different and differences are a positive thing, we would like to invite all children to wear odd socks on Wednesday 18th November.
Kind regards.
