Dear Parent/Carers
Firstly, thank you for your support with attendance. A small reminder that If your child has a medical appointment during school hours, we require evidence.
Letters have been sent out to all families in regards to our new holiday club we will be offering. We have decided to use PSD who specialise in running holiday camps and after-school clubs for children. A reminder of the sessions being offered:
- Session 1: Monday 13th and Tuesday 14th February 2023 (Half term)
- Session 2: Monday 3rd - Thursday 6th April 2023 (Easter holidays)
Summer Holidays:
- Session 3: 1st week of summer holiday: 24th - 28th July 2023
- Session 4: 2nd week of summer holiday: 31st July - 4th August 2023
- Session 5: 3rd week of summer holiday: 7th - 11th August 2023
Each day will run from 9:00 am - 3:00pm. You can book for any sessions that interest you.
The cost of the February half-term dates and the Easter dates are £26.00 per child, per day but these must be booked for all days offered in that session. If you receive free school meals, the cost is £15.00 per day per child, again all days in session must be booked.
The cost for the Summer Camp this year will be £130 per week for each pupil, unless you are eligible for Free School Meals, then the cost will be £75.00 per week per child. We feel this offers excellent value for money as the hourly cost is under £4 an hour.
If you haven’t filled in and returned the form but would be interested in any of the sessions, please email me urgently at welfare@meadowhighschool.org. Bookings will shortly be offered and we will send out the information to all those interested.

Dash can support with lots of issues including benefits, housing, cost of living crisis and much more.
If you would like an appointment please email me kbentley@meadowhighschool.org with you name, child’s name, child’s school year, contact number and reason for appointment. I will then contact you with an allocated date and time.
Coffee Morning 09/12/2022
We have been lucky enough to have PSD (Holiday and after school club specialists), to come to our coffee morning on the 9th December. The coffee morning will be open from parents after drop off and will run until 11. PSD will be telling you about them and what they can provide for you child. They will be here to answer any questions about holiday club you may have.
Medical
At this time of year, we expect lots of coughs and colds to be around. If your child is well enough to be in school, please send them in. If your child has a fever or is unwell, please call the school EVERYDAY they are absence to inform us. Colds and coughs can be managed at school, and we would always contact parents if a child is not well enough to be at school
