Hola! Bonjour! Salut!

Monday 26^th September is European Day of Languages and any child in Y4, Y5 or Y6 who wants to complete the French Language Challenge that was sent out by parentmail last week needs to return it by Monday.

The following children have been awarded ‘Star Reader’ and enjoyed going to the ‘Starbooks’ cafe in the library to enjoy a drink and a treat as their reward. Fantastic!

We have had a number of children in school with head lice . Please kindly check your child’s head regularly and treat as necessary. If we all work together we can eliminate the problem quickly.

Please ensure your child’s name is clearly marked on their school uniform, PE kit and school coat. We are unable to identify items that may be found on the playground or other areas around school if it does not have their name clearly marked on them.

Please can we remind parents/carers to ensure that they come in their PE kit on their PE day. The PE timetable is as below:

 If your child attends after school club, they should come in their PE kit on this day. Thank you.

Last week some children enjoyed baking home grown vegetable scones. They used different vegetables including peppers, courgettes, and tomatoes.

If your child is currently on the Read, Write, Inc. phonics programme, they will be given a set of word list bookmarks this week. These words are called 'red words' and are words that cannot be sounded out. These words link to each level of our reading scheme to support your child to practice reading them before they come across them in their story books. It would be a fantastic support if you could help your child to practice reading the words that link to their current storybook colour eg. pink word list if they bring a pink book home.

A reminder to please ensure your child brings in a water bottle to school with them, clearly labelled with their name on. Thank you.

Please can we remind parents/carers to ensure that any adult (must be 18 years or over) who collects your child from school is on your child’s pick up list. A data collection form has been sent home with your child so please ensure that you write/delete any changes and send the form back to school with your child no later than Thurs 22nd September.

A reminder that Year 6 children are not permitted to walk to school on their own and when dropped off must be “handed over” to an adult. Permission to walk is for home time only.  

Thank you for your continued support.
