  HENRY Programme - Leaflet

  Dear Parents/Carers
  
  Please see the attached leaflet regarding the HENRY Programme.
  
  Everyone wants the best for their children, but it can be hard to know what to do as a parent in the early years. That’s where HENRY comes in.
  
  We hope you find this programme useful.
  
  Many thanks,
  St. Francis

  Leeds Rhinos 'Sing Spectacular'

  Dear Parents/Carers,
  
  We are excited to announce that our children have been invited to take part in the Leeds Rhinos Sing Spectacular. Please note we recommend for pupils in Years 2-6, as the children will need to walk onto the pitch as a school group with staff, without the aid of parents, if your child is younger than this and you feel your child is confident enough to do so, they are more than welcome to join in.
  
  Please see the attached letter for further information, please complete the reply slip below by Friday 17th January and return it to your child’s class teacher
  
  Many thanks
  St, Francis
