Dear Parents,
Welcome Back to the Summer Term
I hope you have all had a
lovely Easter Break and that the children are well rested and full of
chocolate!
This term is again quite short
but we have a lot to fit in. We shall be having a French Day, a trip to the
beach and a day out at Houghton Hall for our end of term trip. If you would
like to join us at Houghton please let
us know, you will be more than welcome. Don’t forget the afternoon tea invitation from
the parents’ committee on the 24thth June at 3pm
; this meeting will be taken by Mrs Lewis and Mrs Maud in the Division I classroom where you are
invited to find out all about the move to the next Division. We also have
sports day on the 17th June at 2pm and we hope you are all able to
come and support. This will be followed by tea and biscuits on the field,
weather permitting! On the 13th June there is a whole school
photograph ; all children should be in the current summer uniform for the
photograph (not blue t-shirts). Summer
Week begins on the 16th of June and culminates with an invitation
for Grandparents to join us for
afternoon tea outside at 2.30pm. The children will spend a taster day with Mrs Lewis
on Tuesday 24th June. Finally
on 26th June you are invited to come and watch your child between 2
and 3pm in their swimming lesson. April. The School Calendar also
mentions a meeting for Reception Parents on Thursday 5
This half term we shall be
looking at a topic on Holidays. It would be wonderful if the children could
bring in any holiday memorabilia that they have such as postcards, photographs,
leaflets, travel brochures, old passports, tickets etc for discussion, role
play and display purposes.
There are not too many
changes to the timetable this term; swimming will take place on a Thursday afternoon.
ICT will continue to take place in the classroom. I will also be taking the children out as the
weather improves to prepare for sports day so PE Kits need to remain in school
all week please. PE lessons will now be on a Friday morning rather than the
afternoon. We have also added a library slot this term. The children will visit
the school library on a Friday morning; they will chose one book and bring it
home to share with you. I would appreciate it if you could then return it to
school the following Friday.
Children will all need
trainers for outdoor play times. Please could you ensure that these trainers
have velcro fasteners that the children are able to do up. They will also need
a sun hat and sun cream as the weather improves.
Homework this term will
be as follows:-
- Monday – Word
Lists
- Tuesday – Reading
books
- Wednesday – spelling
lists
- Thursday – Reading
books
- Friday – Reading
books
Please feel free to pop in
after school should you have any concerns at all.
Thank
you
Mrs Skipper
