Autumn Term Letter
Dear Parents/Carers,
I am so pleased to welcome you Ann Cam with my first letter of the year to you all. What a wonderful start we have had, we have such a fabulous bunch this year, they have really taken it in their stride and the team and I am looking forward to a great year. I hope you are also happy with the transition to school so far and feel it has gone smoothly – if you still have any questions or concerns please do not hesitate to pop in and say hello, my door is always open. I’m also often outside for a chat.
I have some further information to share with you all now that the first week is over and done with. I’m always conscious not to overload as I know this is new to many, so I hope this helps.
Starting next week, every Friday at 2:45pm is our Celebration Worship in the hall. All parents are welcome to attend. During this worship, the children will receive their Star of the Week awards. Each week a different class will have the opportunity to share a ‘Wow’ moment, and children are welcomed to share something from home or from class.
We also celebrate birthdays and count the house points. Your children have all been sorted into a house and this will be shared with them next week. Our houses are Brooke (Blue), Abercrombie (Green), Thomas (Yellow) and Drinkwater (Red).
We have PE once a week this term. On a Monday we have PE with our coach, Mr Stilwell. The children will need their kits in on these days. We tend to leave PE kits in school and send them home every other Friday, unless they are very mucky!
We have wellie racks and ask that all children have a pair of wellie boots to keep in school. There is no rush to buy these, however it would be great when possible so that we can have fun outside whatever the weather.
Reading books will be sent home within the next couple of weeks. All children start on wordless books. They will be changed once a week every Friday. We ask that children record when they have read with their child in their reading diary, and we do the same at school. More information will follow regarding reading at home with our Phonics Workshops.
I can’t quite believe that that is week one finished, I am so proud of all of the children and how well they have done this week. Thank you for your trust and all of the support so far and I look forward to the year ahead.
Kind Regards,
Miss England
