Dame Janet is a good school for everyone.

Today we said goodbye to the wonderful Mrs Trish Amos. Trish has worked at Dame Janet for 27 years, giving her energy for the many different roles she has had in that time. We will miss her greatly as she heads off into her retirement. We have named our medical room ‘The Amos Suite’ to remember her years of expert knowledge for all things medical to help the children of Dame Janet 💜

🇮🇹 Year 5 and 6 enjoyed playing pairs to match the months of the year in English to Italian 🇮🇹 Last week, they learned the days of the week. Why not see how many they can remember? Did you know, unlike English, the days of the week in Italian don’t begin with a capital letter? lunedì (Monday), martedì (Tuesday), mercoledì (Wednesday), giovedì (Thursday), venerdì (Friday), sabato (Saturday), and domenica (Sunday)

Please support your child in understanding not to ride their bike or scooter on the playgrounds or into the school site before and after school.🛴This is especially important on the path into Lower School 🛴 We have had a number of near misses recently. Staff will remind children and adults if spotted. Thank you. Electric scooters must not be brought into the school site under any circumstances (whether being ridden or pushed).
