Parent Rep Meeting -Summary

We have had lots of positive feedback this term.

Year three parents would like to thank the teachers for an informative impact meeting. Response: More to follow.
A big thank you to Miss Grant, parents are very happy with their children’s progress.
The PTA Monster’s Ball was a big success. Parents commented how nice it was to see the teachers dressing up and taking part with the children.
Year 5 went Kayaking and everyone had a fantastic time.
Another success was the annual year 6 trip to PGL. The children had a fantastic time. A big thank you to all staff involved.

LIBRARY AND BOOKS

PLEASE return all library books
If your child brings home the same scheme reading book it could be they still need to work on this book. If you think this is not the case talk to the class teacher about this.

SCHOOL DINNERS

Parents have enquired about the school providing some meals with Halal meat. Response- We will check if it is possible.
A continued issue, parents commenting on the children not having enough food at lunch time especially if they are last.
Response- There is always plenty of food, if children take the wide range that is on offer. Any parent can come and see the school lunches for themselves. Taster Day next term
The school no longer buys individual yogurt pots and now most desserts contain fruit and veg.

Netball

On Tuesday 19th November our year 5 and 6 netball team played a home match against Churchill School. It was a fantastic game and despite the cold, the team performed amazingly, showing great spirit and determination throughout. This paid off as Livingstone won the match 8-1. It was great to see parents come to support as this makes a huge difference to the players. Well done to Daisy, Maria, Sammie, Scarlett, Leo, Adam and Jordan. Keep it up!!!!

Boys Football vs Trent 19.11.19

On Tuesday, Livingstone boys had their third game in the Barnet League against Trent. Our boys started the game with the lead. They all modelled determination, perseverance and great skill, however, the game ended 8-2 to Trent, Better luck next time!

Y5/6 Tag Rugby vs Cromer Road 21.11.19

Livingstone had their first game in the rugby Barnet League on Thursday and it was a phenomenal first game. Children have worked extremely hard in our afterschool tag rugby club showing dedication, resilience and team work which was evident on the pitch. They had a great defensive line and a willingness to attack to score tries. It was a rollercoaster of a game with both schools taking the lead. Despite their valiant effort, the game ended 9-8 to Cromer. Well done to Harry.L, Aedan, Isaiah, Malachai, Jack, Ryley, Ella, Daisy, Zoe and Scarlett.
