Dear Parent and Carer,

I am writing to inform you about a change to Lymm High’s PE kit policy. As you are aware, all students that need to be excused from a PE lesson need to have an explanatory letter from their parent/carer. They also need to still get changed into their PE kit to undertake other roles where possible (e.g. leader or official).

From Monday 26^th September, if students do not have their PE kits with them, they will need to wear one of our spare, clean kits.

Students have been made aware of this new requirement. We would appreciate your support in reminding your child to always bring their PE kit in to their lessons.

Yours sincerely,

Mr J Kerwin
Head of PE & Sport

Dear Parents/Carers of Year 7,

As you may already be aware, as a school we use the online platform ‘Show my Homework/Satchel one’ to record weekly homework tasks for students. Via this platform, all homework set is viewable by students on a phone, tablet or laptop, alongside a timeline of deadlines to help them successfully manage their independent work and build positive learning habits. A student account can also be linked to parent accounts to allow you to support your child’s homework organisation.

While the majority of Year 7 students have been able to activate their accounts and log in, it appears some students do not know their high school email address, which is halting the log-in process.

For information, all student email addresses follow the format below:

‘Year of entry+first initial+surname’@lymmhigh.org.uk 

So for instance, a Year 7 student in this September’s intake, named Joe Bloggs would have the address: 22jbloggs@Lymmhigh.org.uk

Students will have set their own email passwords in IT lessons, and will have been sent a password reset email to allow them to log in to satchel one. Email is accessible via the school website.

If you are still having any difficulties logging in, please feel free to contact me at Smulholland@lymmhigh.org.uk and I can provide log-in PINS for parents and students.

Kind regards,
Miss Mulholland

Dear parents/carers,

I hope that you have all enjoyed a restful summer break. We are delighted to be welcoming our new Year 7 students and are supporting them whilst they settle into high school.

We understand that the transition to high school can feel somewhat daunting for both students and their parents/carers. We want a positive start by ensuring that both parents and students feel informed and prepared for the year to come.

With this in mind, we would like to invite parents and carers to our Meet the Tutor evening which will be held in school on Tuesday 27^th September. We ask that students do not attend the evening as the information provided will be primarily aimed at parents and carers.

So that tutors have a chance to talk to as many parents as possible we are splitting the evening into two sessions.

• 5.00pm – 5.45pm Surname A-J
• 6.00pm – 6.45pm Surname K-Z

If you cannot attend your session time but would like to come to the other session, please email to let me know: nbeck@lymmhigh.org.uk

If possible, we would like to encourage any parents/carers to attend the evening on foot. However, we will have parking available. Please do exercise caution when parking to ensure that cars are not blocked in.

We look forward to seeing you.

Yours sincerely,

Miss N Beck
Head of Year 7
