This year, school starts at 8.55am and finishes at 3.30pm.

PE/Swimming will be every Friday afternoon. Children not swimming should still come to school in their PE kit on that day. 

All pupils should bring a named water bottle to school each day, to help them to stay hydrated. 

As part of our curriculum, we will focus on emotional wellbeing through Take Five, our class assemblies, Worry Wizard and in specific PSHCE lessons (Personal, social, Health and Citizenship Education).

HOME LEARNING

Reading:

Please read at least five times a week - this can be your school reading book, a book you have accessed on Bug Club or a book/magazine of your choice.  Please ask an adult to comment and sign your planner so we can count up your weekly reads every FRIDAY ready for Reward Time.

We also use the learning platforms Bedrock for vocabulary and Reading Plus for Fluency. Your child will have access to these in school time but can use them at home too if they wish.

Spelling

Each week, your child will be given a set of spellings to learn. They will practise at school, but we encourage them to also practise at home ready for a spelling test on FRIDAYS.

Mathletics & Timestable Rockstars

Mathletics is a fantastic app designed to support your child with their learning.  The children are able to complete fun tasks and also play 'live' against other children to earn points.  

Times Table Rockstars is a fun and challenging app designed to help children master their tables. We often like to challenge children with a 'Battle of the Bands' where they are able to compete against another class or year group! Times Tables are tested each FRIDAY.
