SAFE
AND CONSIDERATE PARKING
Please
do not park on the corner of Cedar Rise and Knoll Drive at drop off or pick
up. Parents that do, are parking on the dropped kerb and preventing parents
and children being able to cross safely. I am very concerned that there is going
to be an accident. Please do not be selfish, park further away or even
better..WALK!

DANCE
FESTIVAL TICKETS/PERMISSION SLIPS
The
closing date for receiving slips for Dance club members is today. I have only
received half of the dance club’s requests so far. Please return the slip by
tomorrow so I can order the tickets. If your request is later than tomorrow I
may not be able to secure a ticket for you. If you have asked for extra
tickets, I will let you know in due course, if they are available. NB It
isn’t possible to buy tickets directly from the theatre on this occasion.

THE MONKFRITH SPRING RAFFLE EXTRAVAGANZA
Do you or a friend / family member have their own business? Can
you help us fundraise for our children's playground? FOMS are planning
a big springtime raffle and we are looking for businesses who would be happy
to donate a raffle prize. This could be donations such as a gift card
for a service (beautician etc ), a voucher for a restaurant, or an item or
voucher from a shop. If you are able to donate something to help the
fundraising for the playground, please do contact us at F.O.M.S@outlook.com,
speak to a committee member, or put a note in your child's book bag for the
attention of FOMS. We're looking forward to hearing from you!
Thanks and best wishes for 2017,
The FOMS committee

Dear
All,
Most
of you are probably aware that we hold Ward Panel meetings every three months
where ourselves, residents and Ward councillors meet up to discuss issues on
the Ward and our strategies for dealing with them.
As
part of the Met's drive to increase engagement with residents we will now
also be creating a short survey that will be sent out every three months
prior to the panel meetings. We know that most of you are busy and unable to
attend our meetings so the survey is a good way to nonetheless get you more
involved. The survey can be found at the link below and can be completed in
three minutes (or less!). If you wish to save time you don’t need to fill in
the boxes on the form and can just click the response buttons for questions 2
through to 7.
http://www.smartsurvey.co.uk/s/BrunswickParkJanuary/
This
is the first one we have created so if you discover any issues with it or
have suggestions for future questions please let us know!
Regards,
Brunswick

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR PARENTS
Barnet council is consulting on changes to the admission
arrangements for Barnet community schools. The following changes are being
proposed:
- To give
priority for places to children of teaching staff of the school where
the member of staff has been employed at the school for two or more
years at the time at which the application for admission to the school
is made and will be in employment as a teacher at the school when the
child starts school.
- To amend the
In-Year admission oversubscription criterion, which gives priority to
former pupils at the school, restricting this priority to former pupils
without a school place that live in the geographical area and have
attended the school in the previous 12 months.
The consultation will run until 31 January 2017 and can also be
viewed online at https://engage.barnet.gov.uk/
We
encourage all parents to express their views by taking part in the online
survey
