Reading
At our school we place a great importance on nurturing a love of Reading and we teach phonics and reading using the Little Wandle scheme. As part of this, the children will bring home 2 types of books each week: a sharing book and a reading book matched to their phonics level. The sharing book is a book to enjoy reading together, perhaps at bedtime. The reading book is read in reading sessions during the week and brought home at the end of the week. We would encourage you to listen to your child read this book and celebrate their achievement as they read it independently.
Please return your child’s sharing book to school on a Friday and their reading book on a Monday. It is important that these books are looked after and returned promptly.
Reading Challenge
Each half term the children can earn raffle tickets each time they read twice with an adult at home. At the end of each half term a winner from each year group is then picked out.
We also set a class target each half term and our reward for reaching it is a new class book to share. Please date and sign your child’s yellow reading record each time they read with an adult at home including their sharing book.
PE
This half term we have our PE lesson on Monday. The children should bring their PE kit to school on these days (white t-shirt, navy/black leggings or jogging bottoms, a hoodie or jumper and trainers/pumps). It should be labelled with your child’s name please. You may also wish to send a waterproof jacket on these days.
Forest School
We have Forest school on Thursdays this half term. Please bring wellies and waterproofs in a bag that can be left at school.
Drinks and Snacks
We ask the children to drink water at regular intervals during the day so please provide them with a named, durable water bottle (water only, not juice).
A fruit or vegetable snack is provided everyday for the children which they eat at morning playtime. You can send your child with their own piece of fruit or vegetable if you so wish but no other snacks are suitable, thank you.
And lastly, thank you for your support and if you have any questions or would like a chat, please catch a member of staff at the beginning or end of the day.
Thank you,
Mrs Kidd, Mrs Millar, Mrs Robinson and Mrs Farrar
