Reading for Enjoyment Homework

Mon 26 Nov 2018

From this point onwards your child will start to bring home a poem or a story each fortnight, to read with you as homework. Please read this with your child and discuss what has been read as well as rhyming the words together.

The poems or stories will be related to class themes, weather, seasons or even just funny poems to share together. The aim is to encourage reading and to develop vocabulary. In order to improve reading skills try and read the same poem or story every night. It will take 2 minutes.

Enjoy reading with your child and sharing quality time together.

Thank you for your support.

LOST PROPERTY

Sun 18 Nov 2018

We have a significant amount of lost property including a lot of red school jumpers. For the next few weeks these will be available for you to go through on tables near the main reception area. Please come and have a look. There are some very good quality coats and other types of clothing - unclaimed as they do not have names on them. We urge you to put names on your children's clothing so that we can return them to you if they get lost.
Any unclaimed clothing will be donated to charity around 5th December.

Parents' Evening 12th and 13th November

Mon 12 Nov 2018

Teachers will  send out your appointments  after half term with your children.  As these appointments are for an up date  on how your child is settling in - they will only be 10  minutes long. If you have not received an appointment by the end of the first week back , please contact us. Mrs Evans and Mrs Powell are available to talk to you on Tuesday evening until 5.30pm.

UPDATE
At the headteacher's discretion we do authorise holidays during term time for pupils who have consistently good levels of attendance. However,please understand that Parents' Evening is timetabled in the school calendar early in the year and is for 2 evenings. Once in the autumn term (2 evenings) and then again in the spring term (2 evenings). If you are unable to make Parents' Evening due to a holiday then we are unable to re-arrange your appointment.
