DCAT UPDATE

We are delighted that Tollgate Community Junior School joined DCAT on 1st October 2023.  

Choosing the right school for your child is one of the most important decisions you will make. You want your child to be safe and happy at school. You want their learning to be meaningful and enjoyable. We are delighted that we are in the process of joining the Diocese of Chichester Academy Trust. This is an exciting opportunity that will enable Tollgate to collaborate with other schools with a similar ethos. We are confident that approval will be given by the Regional Commissioner in Spring 2023, with conversion completed for October 2023.

Our children are excited about coming to school. They feel part of our learning community. Everyone is valued, respected and cared for. We are committed to meeting the individual needs of each child. We work in close partnership with all of our families. This ensures our children are successful and responsible members of the community. Vital to this partnership is our ‘open door’ policy. Parents and carers feel they can approach the school if they have a query or concern.

At Tollgate Community Junior School we celebrate success, reward achievement and support difficulties. Our pupils are keen and motivated learners. They have a well-developed understanding of the world and their role within it. Our curriculum is broad, balanced and enriching. We make the most of first-hand learning opportunities.

We hope that this website gives you a flavour of what life is like at Tollgate. We would like to welcome you to our school to experience for yourself the unique ethos and opportunities that our children enjoy. We hope that your family will become part our learning community and take advantage of all that we have to offer.

Welcome to our school.

Mr S. Dennis
Headteacher

A warm welcome from the Headteacher

Together Everyone Achieves More

We are all born with an innate capacity to learn. How successful we are can depend on a variety of factors. These can include how we feel about ourselves, if we know how we learn best, how good we are at practising and making links with what we already know. At Tollgate we know that we have children with a tremendous amount of potential. With help from parents we aim to develop this potential.  

If you would like your child to join us at Tollgate, we would love to hear from you. Or you can contact the East Sussex County Council Admissions team for more information.

    School Christmas Lunch Booking Form 🎄
    Good afternoon You should have received a Christmas lunch booking form by now, and a huge thank you to those have already returned the form. For those that have not been given one, or have lost theirs, please see the attached. The form needs to be returned by November 22nd as the kitchen have to place the final food order, so we will be unable to book any late returns I'm afraid. Just to confirm we will need the form to be returned whether your child requires a school lunch or will bring their own packed lunch, this way we are sure we have catered for everyone's needs on the day. Thank you for your support with this. Kind regards Mrs Willgrass

    Children's Christmas Fayre 🎄
    Good afternoon We are excited to announce that we will be holding a Christmas Fayre at the end of this term - Wednesday 11th December. This event will be held during the school afternoon, for the children only, so that each class can visit in smaller class and/or year groups, rather than 400 children trying to attend at the same time. In preparation for the event, we would greatly appreciate any donation of items that could be sold in our 'Children's Only Shop'. The aim of the shop is for children to be able to do their own Christmas shopping, for adults at home, and wrap them to bring home. Items such as unopened toiletries, chocolates , gift sets e.t.c would be greatly appreciated (No alcohol please!) We would also request any of the following items, if you have them spare at home that you are happy to donate: Teddy bears that are clean and in good condition for Teddy Tombola Selection packs (sweets or chocolate) Christmas wrapping paper Unwanted children's books/toys (suitable for ages 7-11) that are still in good condition Empty, clean jam jars (with labels removed) Christmas baubles Tinsel Wool or yarn (any colour, but particularly red, green, brown, white, yellow) Cardboard tubes from kitchen rolls Anything that you are able to donate, would be greatly appreciated! Many Thanks! Tollgate Christmas Fayre Team!🎅

    Absence
    Good morning Just a couple of reminders around illness and absence. We do seem to have a tummy bug doing the rounds at the moment unfortunately and our policy is that children should remain absent for 48hrs after the last episode of sickness and/or diarrhea. This is to prevent further spread and to protect some of our more vulnerable children and staff. We also do request that you call every day of their absence please (whatever the illness) as again this is to safeguard the children, as some children walk to school alone. We are then sure they are not meant to have arrived as we have been notified by an adult. When calling about an absence, please leave a message on the children's absence line, not to be confused with the staff absence line, which does not come straight through to the office. If we do not receive a call daily, we are obliged to call regarding the child's welfare. The office can often be very busy in the morning and we are not always able to take phone calls, so it is preferable to leave a message wherever possible. Thank you for your support with this. Kind regards Mrs Willgrass
