On the attatched document
The UK Health Security Agency is writing to encourage you to check that your child is up to date with their immunisations before starting school.
If your child is aged between two and five years old, they should have had their pre-school immunisations (also known as vaccinations) which will help protect your child against many serious infections.
It’s also a good time to catch up with any of the usual immunisations your child may have missed as a baby or toddler. Just ask your GP practice or clinic about catch-up doses. It is never too late to have your child immunised.
The table below shows the pre-school immunisations that your child will be offered by your GP between the ages of two and five, and also has information about the flu vaccine which will be offered to them each year in school.

SUPPORTING YOUR CHILD'S MOVE TO SECONDARY SCHOOL - MANAGING WORRIES!
Beginning secondary school involves lots of different changes for children including travelling new routes to school, becoming familiar with new environments and teachers, making new friends, and learning new subjects. This workshop aims to discuss these common worries and provide strategies to help you support your child through the transition.
The Education Wellbeing Service is offering this workshop on 2 dates. Parents can either attend an online webinar or in person session.

The charity was founded in 1961 and was formerly known as the National Kidney Research Fund. Phyl and Dave Leonard who are part of the All Saints Benhilton Church community have a son Steve who has chronic kidney disease stage 4 and at sometime in the future will require dialysis and eventually a kidney transplant. They have asked us to appeal for used stamps which they collect in support of Kidney Research. They would really appreciate it if you would share their request with your friends and family.
There are three major categories of postage stamps you can collect.
- Modern UK stamps
- Old UK stamps
- Foreign stamps
Please send the stamps into school with your children, or alternatively they may be left in the box at the back of church.
On the 11th March Sutton Night Watch started its first preloved and new adult clothes sale with all proceeds going to Sutton Night Watch Homeless Charity. This is a charity very close to the heart of many people here at All Saints Benhilton School, and our community has worked hard to support them where we can.
So why not go along, chat to volunteers and see what they do, have a cup of tea and a cake and most of all bag yourself a bargain - everything is under £5!
It is open every second Saturday each month – the next one will be on Saturday 8th April and will be open from 9am - 12 noon at 35 Manor Road, Wallington.
With my whole heart I seek you; let me not wander from your commandments!
