We had a fantastic time on the field today. Mrs Garraway and her team mate Charlie taught us all some rugby. We played ‘stuck in the mud’ and then had some team races. The children were very enthusiastic and really got stuck in.

This week, we have been learning about all the people in school that help us. We wrote a letter to the office staff and today, Mrs Tranter came down to talk to us about all the fantastic work the office staff do. We plan to have an office area in our role play so that the children can have a go at answering phones, typing letters and booking appointments.

Reception have really enjoyed coming to school in their pyjamas today-it hasn’t made them as sleepy as we thought it would. We’ve had lots of lovely chats about reading and books. This afternoon, we all had a great time reading with our buddy classes.

This morning, whilst the rest of school went to church for the Harvest, we took the opportunity to go exploring around the school. We found big chairs in year 6, a dragon on the wall, the thrive hive, numbers on lockers and some letters that are the same as the ones we have been learning in class.

Please find below our plan for this half term and how you can help your child at home.

Please see a teacher in the morning/afternoon if you have any queries.

Autumn 1 medium term

All the children are settling in brilliantly. Thank you for all your support at home.

Good morning.

As your children settle into school, we will be working with them to find out what they already know and what we will be learning together

Please see the link below which gives you details of the play based assessment work we do in the first few weeks with your child.
