We look forward to seeing you all on Saturday for our annual school fete. Our PTA have been working very hard for the last few months to put together a great event, with displays, bouncy castles, stalls, food and drink all on offer.
Don’t forget, all proceeds go towards the school and allows us to give enriched opportunities for all children. So come and support our school and enjoy a fabulous day out.
For those wishing to see the Royal Wedding, it will be showing in the school hall.

All the children dressed up in red, white and blue or party outfits in honour of Prince Harry and Megan’s wedding tomorrow.
In the afternoon all the children decorated a cup cake each and we all went out onto the field for a picnic.
It was a lovely way to end the week.

The Lepe Beach clean up is now THIS SATURDAY!
March 17th 10AM – 3PM
Lets get as many Waterside families along as we can.
Join the Lepe Rangers as they take on a beach & park clean. Each day they pick up litter that has either been washed up on our beach with every tide or left by our visitors. Plastics are the most common source of litter found and cause harm to our marine creatures and bird life. Turn up – head to the office to collect your litter-picker pack and details of where to litter pick. Make a note of the things you find and weigh your bag when finished as this helps us protect our marine environment. Free parking for those who help with this event – collect your parking pass on arrival!

Hampshire Music Service visit assembly
Today we were very excited to welcome Miss Schwartz from the Hampshire Music Service to assembly. Miss Schwartz is an experienced brass musician and music teacher. Miss Schwartz spoke with the children about the instruments, their history and how they are played. We all enjoyed listening to her play and I think everyone learnt something new about brass instruments. If there are any children who are interested in learning an instrument then please come in and speak to staff about it.

Santa and his little elves were VERY busy crafting and organising the Christmas Fayre yesterday. There was a chance to meet Santa, a fabulous raffle, tombola and a wide variety of stalls in the hall. Many parents attended with their children and fun was had by all.
The PTA took a whooping £867 which is an excellent amount of money. A big thank you to Friends of Waterside for their efforts in organising such a great event.
Friday 1st December – FOW Christmas Shop

Festivities are well underway at Waterside this year. Friends of Waterside opened their Christmas shop today and they did a great job of organising the children.
671 gifts were ordered and this equated to 76% of the school shopping for gifts. Every child who entered the shop had their very own shopper who helped them chose gifts for their loved ones! Each class passed through in 30 minutes which is amazing!
A big thank you to the FOW for organising, shopping, wrapping and spending the time to organise this event. In total the event raised an approximate profit of £300 for the school.
