Parents and Families

Watch this space for all the events coming up in our new school year.

This newsletter will give you information about what is happening for parents at Stepney Park Primary School and in Tower Hamlets. 

Check out our Parents and Community page.

Also, have a look at the Tower Hamlets Local Offer website for any workshops and other opportunities offered in the borough.

3rd April Parent-Teacher Meetings

Parent-Teacher meetings are happening on Thursday 3rd April.

School will close at 1pm and meetings will start from 1.30pm.

A link will be sent out to parents on Friday 14th February to book a 10-minute slot with your child's class teacher on the 3rd April. This is a great opportunity to discuss your child's progress. 

If you need help to book your appointments, we have the following drop in session to support you.

9-10am Monday 10th and 17th March - during the coffee morning

3.30-4pm Monday 17th - Friday 21st March in the Parents Room

Year groups will also showcase what children have been learning in other subjects this academic year. Year 2,4 & 6 in the South Middle Hall and Year 1, 3 & 5 in the North Middle Hall. The children would love to share their learning with you, so please walk through the halls to see what fabulous learning our children have done so far this year.

Workshops and Events at SPPS

Please have a look at the following events that are happening for the parents and children at Stepney Park Primary School for the following 3 weeks. If you have any questions about any event, please speak to the class teacher or a member of the PCT team. 

World Book Day takes place on Thursday 6th March.  We are encouraging children to read for fun with the theme this year ‘Read Your Way’. Children will be able to dress up. What does your child like to read, (or watch, or do)? Wear a small clue or a whole costume. If you want ideas, there are great low-cost options on the World Book Day website .

Children will receive their £1 book token which can be used to get a £1 World Book Day Book or £1 off at any participating Book Shop or Supermarket.  You can find your nearest bookseller at www.worldbookday.com/participating-retailers (the nearest to school is Sainsbury's Whitechapel)

Coffee Morning on Monday 3rd March will also have a Reading Focus.
