Our learning theme for the first half of this term is ‘Potty About Plants’ and a curriculum overview and knowledge organiser can be viewed on our website. During this term, we will continue to send home spellings and homework via Microsoft Teams.

Your support in practising these skills at home is invaluable and evident in the children’s class work. There is a parent information meeting on 24th April to find out more information. Past Phonics Screening Check papers can be found here: Phonics - GOV.UK if you wish to practise at home.

Please also continue with regular reading of their Little Wandle reading books to support their overall reading skills.

P. E. continues on Wednesdays and Fridays for Year 1 children. Please could we remind you that for health and safety reasons, long hair should be tied back and earrings removed or taped over.

Challenge for all: if your shoes have laces, can you tie them by yourselves?

Hopefully, the warmer weather will soon be here so, with this in mind, could we please request thatall sun hats and other items of summer clothing are named. Throughout the summer, please ensure children bring in their water bottles every day as they will be encouraged to drink after playtimes and lunchtimes.

Thank you, as ever, for your continuing support.

Mrs Cryer, Mrs Eades and Miss Garland
