    SUPPORT

    Many thanks to the families who went

    along to Chester FC last weekend to

    support John as part of his quest to run

    740 miles in 21 days to support

    charities, including Alder Hey Hospital.

    We welcomed

    John with lots of

    applause as he

    ran onto the

    football pitch and

    even had enough

    energy to play alittle game of

    football with the

    children. It was a

    lovely opportunity

    for the children to

    play a game of football on Chester FCs

    pitch.

    I tweeted a good luck message and got

    the following reply:

    WALK ON WEDNESDAY

    Can I remind you that the next Walk on

    Wednesday is Wednesday 21st March.

    Well done to all those children and

    parents who are taking advantage of the

    good weather and walking to school,

    rather than driving.

    ASHTON HAYES PRIMARY SCHOOL

    NEWS

    ISSUE 7 / SPRING TERM 2012 / FRIDAY 9TH MARCH 2012SUSTRANS

    Many of you may be familiar with

    Sustrans and the work they do to

    encourage people to use their cycles. I

    have requested that their local officer,

    Sarah Diamond, supports us through a

    process of raising the profile of how we

    can get on our bikes and have fun. I

    have planned a series of events over

    the coming months, which I hope you

    will all enjoy and be able to support us

    with. These will begin in the Summer

    Term and I will give you more details

    nearer the time.

    There will be a

    Launch

    Assembly in

    which parents

    would be welcome to attend and

    meeting with staff/helpers, a Bike It

    Breakfast, where you will be able to

    cycle into school and have breakfast in

    the hall together. Two sessions have

    been organised to encourage our

    younger children to Ditch the

    Stabilisersand for the older children to

    practise some skills on the school

    playground. A Love Your Bike Daywill

    give the children chance to learn some

    basic maintenance and they will be

    taught how to repair a puncture and

    finally we have planned a Friday school

    bike ride and picnic. I would be

    interested if any parents would be

    interested in helping with any of the

    above events. Most events will be

    opened to most children, but the more

    parent support we have, the more

    children can be involved.

    THEATRE GROUP

    Further to the flier which all parents

    should have received last week, I

    would like to remind you that the

    Ashton Hayes Theatre Club will be

    performing in just two weeks:

    ...is proud to present its next productionTherese Raquin which is a Thriller set

    in Paris 1860 and is written by Emile

    Zola. If you haven't been to one of our

    plays before this one is well worth a

    watch; it has a gripping storyline!

    Bookings can be made with Mrs Stubbs

    in the School Office and tickets are also

    on sale in the Post Office.

    This play is suitable for children aged 8

    upwards, Hope to see you there...!

    PTFA EVENTS

    Please find on the reverse side of this

    letter further information about events

    planned by the PTFA.

    0-4S GROUP

    Our Thursday afternoon sessions offer a

    great opportunity for your pre-schoolers

    to play and meet new friends. Join us

    every Thursday from 1.15 pm in the

    school hall, we always have chocolatebiscuits!

    We are also looking for donations of the

    following, dressing up clothes, baby-

    gym and play food. If you are able to

    donate please bring them into school.

    If you would like to help run the session

    please contact Nicole Wright 07976

    905946, we are looking for a couple of

    people to help out on the occasional

    Thursday afternoon.

    SARAH EVANS

    Many congratulations to Mrs S Evans

    who gave birth to two boys this week,

    Keegan and Corey. Both boys are doing

    well and Mrs Evans is very happy!
