Living our Values
We are motivated and engaged.
We also had a special visit from Santa in Y1!
Well-being
Please ensure that you have a wonderful holiday with your family. It has been a challenging term, starting online and then finally getting in to school for face to face learning. We highly recommend a break for your children but also acknowledge the value of regular reading. Please encourage your child to listen to stories with you (home language stories are incredibly important) and read regularly (at their appropriate level). 10-15 minutes of reading or story time a day would be amazing.
We do have the 'Teach Your Monster to Read' logins for the children. 10 minutes with this regularly will also support their phonics. Please contact your class teacher if you do not have the login for this.
Global Citizenship
Thank-you very much for the book donations. They were gratefully received. Please check out our CAT pages for a full update and lots of photos. Please have a look here.
Learning
Swimming lessons
Next term, your child will have 2 PE days and 1 Swimming day. On their swimming day, they wear their normal school uniform and have their swimming kit in their bags to change into.
Swimming days are as follows:
Tuesday: 1M
Wednesday: 1P, 1K, 1R, 1S
Thursday: 1N, 1J, 1G.
Swimming will begin in Term 2.
