Class 1
Welcome!
Mrs Evans and Miss Jenkins look forward to teaching the children during the year - here is some helpful information:
- Children should be dropped off at the door near the main entrance and will be released from the same door. We ask that you stand on the bottom yard at this time.
- Children should bring fruit/veg for a snack and a water bottle every day.
- Please ensure that every item of clothing is labelled with your child's name.
- During the summer term please ensure that your child is wearing suncream when they get to school and that they have suncream in their bag to reapply during the day.
- PE lessons will be held on Mondays - please send your children to school in their PE kit on this day.
- The children go swimming every Thursday during the Autumn and Spring terms.
- Children will be given homework on Fridays, we ask that this is returned the following Monday or Tuesday. The homework will be based on work that the children have completed during the week.
- Please ensure that they have their reading file daily as we as staff read with them at least three times a week in school. We encourage you to help your child practice their reading skills on a weekly basis.
- As a school, we use ClassDojo to share information during the week and to celebrate the children's activities. - ClassDojo for Parents
