Just a few reminders/pointers please: please can P.E kits continue to come into school on Tuesdays and could spelling books be brought into school ready for your child's new spellings every week.
Also please could name labels be put into all clothing to avoid any mix up in the classroom and wrong clothing going home or getting lost at school.
