Next EKO session

We have our next EKO (forest school) session on Wednesday 5th November (first week after half term week).

The children will need to come to school in their outdoor clothes to save getting changed. Children will need:

  • Suitable old clothing e.g. T-shirt, jumper and trousers/leggings
  • A warm coat – this may get muddy
  • Wellies           
  • Waterproofs – trousers and jacket
  • Old pair of warm trousers (if no waterproofs)
  • Spare trainers to change into after the session

Thank you,

Year 3 team

Halloween party day

Thursday is our last day before half term and to end it nicely we are having a party. Children are welcome to come dressed up ready for some spooky fun activities and disco.
if your child doesn’t attend Thursday’s please feel free to let them dress up on their last day Tuesday or Wednesday.

 

Monday 20th October

Just a reminder that we have our school photos on Monday. Please send your child in to school in their school uniform. They can bring their trainers in a bag to change into for PE.

Thanks,

Year 3 team

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.
