As part of St John’s Eco commitment, we will no longer be supplying water cups for the water fountains.
The impact on land waste and the mounting cost of purchasing the cups has forced this decision. Therefore, we are asking for all children to bring in a water bottle from home. This cuts down on costs, landfill/carbon footprint and the continuous interruption of children leaving the classroom to get a drink of water.
For the interim we will have a small amount of re-usable beakers for children who do not bring a bottle, but our aim is for every St John’s pupil to provide a water bottle of their own.
Please provide your child with a water bottle as soon as possible making sure it has your child's name and class clearly written on it.
...while you are at it with the permanent marker why not check over your child's uniform, ensuring all their clothes have their name on?
To check your child has the correct uniform see 'What uniform does my child need?' which you will find on our 'Need to Know' page on our website:
