Reception Message – Hometime

Please could we remind parents/carers to pop a note in the home/school communication book or ring into the main school office if somebody else is collecting your child that day.

If this is going to be a regular alternative person collecting, such as a family member, friend or fellow parent, then please let us know they have permission to collect in your absence.

Thank you for your support.

Message – Lost property and home time.

Good evening,
As you can see, now Autumn is in full swing, we are experiencing both warm and wet weather. Because of this, the children are taking coats, jumpers and cardigans on and off more frequently whilst playing outside at break and lunchtimes. Please can you help us by ensuring that their uniform and coats are labelled with their full name so that we can easily and quickly partner up clothes again with the right person.

It can be quite a challenge to man the doors at home time and search for lost belongings at the same time. Our priority has to be ensuring that each child returns to the correct person collecting them.

We would like to reassure you that we always encourage the children to hang their jumpers and coats on their peg when they take them off, and also to bring them in from the playground. Unfortunately despite reminders, the children can get easily distracted when they are busy playing or having fun so getting mixed up with other uniform is inevitable.

We would appreciate if you would please wait until all children have been sent home with their adult collecting before sending your child back in to look for their belongings, so staff can ensure children are sent out safely.  If your child’s belongings have not been left in class, then please do accompany your child to the lost property box after school to search for items found on the playground.

Thank you for your support and patience at home time.

 

Reception Message – Halloween

Children are invited to bring in a Halloween costume next Thursday (23rd) to change into for the afternoon for some dancing and crafts.
Please do not worry, this will be fun and nothing too spooky! No forest school kit will be needed this day.

A reminder this will be the last day for the children before half term as Friday 24th is a PD Day.

Thank you.
The Reception Team :)

Reception to Year 5 Stay and Share for Parents/Carers

We are really looking forward to our ‘Stay and Share’ session (Reception to Y5) on Thursday 9th October at 2:45pm. Please enter your child’s classroom from their usual drop off/pick up location (Years R, 2, 3, and 5 parents should enter from the playground classroom doors, Year 1 and Mrs Everall’s classes’ can be accessed from the decking and Mr Stubbs’ class from the stairs by the Visitor Car Park). Playground gates will open at 2:45pm. Due to space constraints, we are only able to accommodate one parent/carer per child. Attendance must be confirmed through ParentPay so staff are aware of expected numbers on the day.  For this event, the children will remain in their classrooms, so if you are visiting more than one child, you will be able to move between the classrooms and spend some time with them individually. We look forward to seeing you all and the children can’t wait to share their learning with you.
