Strengthening Our Home-School Partnership
At Millbrook Primary, we deeply value the partnership between home and school. This collaboration is essential for our children's well-being and learning. We aim to build strong relationships with parents, families, and friends, fostering an environment where everyone works together for the benefit of the child.
Family Liaison Officer
Our Family Liaison Officer, Mrs Passmore, is available to support families with any concerns affecting a child's attendance and well-being. She hosts a weekly Parent Café and a Baby and Toddler session at Bettws in Bloom. Additionally, she works closely with parents to address barriers to regular attendance and provides guidance on a range of family-related matters. Please feel free to contact her through the school office.
Mrs Passmore is always open to new ideas. Following a recent parent survey, we introduced an ALN parent group. Our ALNco, Miss Bennett, attended two Parent Café sessions in response to parents' requests. At Millbrook, we strive to enhance our parent communication and engagement. We welcome your suggestions for any parent sessions you believe would be beneficial. If you would like to speak to Mrs Passmore, please contact the office.
Open Door Policy
We maintain an open-door policy, welcoming parents to come and talk to us about any aspect of school life. Whether you have questions or need to discuss any concerns, please feel free to reach out. Remember, no question is ever silly.
Sharing News and Talents
We encourage parents to share notes about their child's activities and achievements at home. Additionally, we will organise open mornings or afternoons for parents to visit classrooms and see firsthand what their children are learning.
Parent Volunteers
Parents are invited to get involved in school life as volunteers. If you are interested, please inform the school office. Note that volunteers will be placed in classes different from their child’s and will undergo an enhanced DBS check, arranged by the school at no cost.
Family Involvement Opportunities
Mrs Passmore hosts a weekly Parent Café for the parents and carers of Millbrook children, along with a Baby and Toddler session for families in Bettws. These sessions take place at Bettws in Bloom from 1:00 PM to 2:45 PM.
Working with Families in Nursery
In Nursery, we aim to build strong links between home and school. We look forward to working closely with parents and family members through formal meetings and events throughout the year.
Family Workshops
To help you support your child's learning, we offer workshops in Maths, Phonics, and Reading. These sessions provide strategies and ideas for home support and allow you to engage with your child's learning environment. Workshop dates will be announced at the start of the Autumn term.
