BLUEBELL CLASS (2/3)

 

We would like to send a warm welcome to all of the children and their families who are very much a part of Bluebell Class this year.

As your class teacher, I am very excited about what the new school year brings and to see what is in store for the children as the year unfolds.

The children will be supported in lessons by myself as well as two teaching assistants; Ms Burke who is a 1:1 assistant on a Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday; and Mrs Gaye who is present in the class from a Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.

You are super lucky this year because you also have kinetic sports delivering high quality sports sessions on a Tuesday afternoon, so please can we bring in our P.E kits on this day.

We will continue to have our Celebration Assembly on a Friday afternoon, just as we did last year. If you have any out of school achievement you would like to be shared in our celebration assemblies please do ask as we would love to celebrate with your child.

You will have homework sent home each Friday, starting on the 9th September. There will also be a spelling test each week on a Wednesday.

You will bring home a reading record. It’s really important that you keep a log of everything you are reading and we will check these in the mornings when you come into school and sign them to say that we have seen them.

We begin the year with a history topic which teaches about the Stone Age and the Iron Age, allowing the children to ask their own questions relating to this topic to be answered.

In Science we will be exploring rocks and fossils.

We are looking forward to getting to know all of our families, and want you to remember that we are available to answer questions, reassure and support in any way that we can.

 

Many thanks, Miss Michael and the Bluebell class team.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

BUTTERCUP CLASS (R/1)

 

Welcome to Buttercup Class!

We would like to send a warm welcome to all of the children and their families who are very much a part of Buttercup Class this year.

As your teachers and teaching assistants, we are very excited about what the new year brings and to see what is in store for the children as the year unfolds.

You are super lucky this year because you have kinetic sports delivering high quality sports sessions on a Monday afternoon. We ask that the children bring their P.E kit into school on P.E days (Reception children will begin to change for PE next half term).

We will continue to have our Celebration Assembly on a Friday afternoon, just as we did last year.

The main focus for homework this half term will be reading and phonics based activities. We ask that you spend 10 minutes a day reading with your child. The Y1 children will bring home 2 RWI books that are directly linked to their learning in school. The Reception children will initially have wordless books and will soon be bringing home the sounds that they have learnt during their RWI lessons each week to practise. 

We begin the year with a history topic about the history of toys. We would love it if any grandparents would be willing to come in and share what toys and games that they played with when they were young. We will also be going on our first field trip linked to this topic towards the end of this half term. More information about this will be shared soon.  

We are looking forward to better getting to know all of our families and want you to remember that we are available to answer questions, reassure and support in any way that we can.

Many thanks

Miss King and team

SUNFLOWER CLASS (5/6)

It has already been an extremely busy week back for the children in Sunflower Class with lots of great work going on. 

The children have been coming home with a few spelling sheets that we would love them to work through at home. We are also pushing children to ensure they know their multiplication tables. This will help hugely as we move forward in our math planning. 
In Sunflower class we have PE, Monday and Wednesday. Please can children bring their PE kit in on these days, but NOT come in wearing it. 
We will be having a day for parents to come in on Monday 18th September to listen to children read in the morning and then spend a little time with myself talking through the curriculum this year and an option to stay for a maths lesson. This will be from 9:15am to 10:15. We hope to see many of you there.
