Welcome to Class 1HW

Thank you for taking the time to look at our class page on our new school website.

Reading

At our school we place a great importance on Reading and we would ask you to encourage your child to read their school reading book everyday and record this with a signature and a message if possible. Obviously reading stories to your child is still valuable and enjoyable for both children and parents.

Please return your child’s reading book to school everyday so that we can change the book if it has been read and also so that we can record if the child has read at school.

Library

We visit the school library every Tuesday afternoon. During this time, if a child wishes to change their library book they can do so.

PE

We have PE lessons on a Tuesday morning (with a coach this half term) and a Thursday afternoon, hopefully outdoors if the weather allows. Please bring your child’s PE kit (white t-shirt, blue/black shorts, trainers and jogging bottoms) to school on a Monday and leave in school until Thursday/Friday.

We also do daily physical activity in the form of a Daily Mile or an indoor exercise (e.g. BBC Supermovers) to get our bodies moving as much as possible.

Drinks and Snacks

We ask the children to drink water at regular intervals during the day so please provide them with a 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 Ward, Mrs Haigh, Mrs Dewin & Miss Broome
