Reading at home - September
Reading – Information for parents. Firstly, a big thank you to parents who have spent time over the summer reading with your child / children and using the online resources shared before we finished in July. I hope you have found these useful and that the children have enjoyed reading a range of different texts.
September Update 26/08/20
School Opening Tuesday 1st September We hope you were able to have some relaxation and quality family time over this extraordinary summer. We are setting out a reminder of some previously announced arrangements, together with some updated and new information. As indicated before the school year ended, we are opening the school using a “full class bubble” system, as part of a risk assessed plan for safer opening. A “bubble” is a group of children who keep together, as much as possible, as an isolated group from other bubbles. Class bubble sizes are no more than 30 in KS1 and around 33 in KS2. As per the national guidance, from Year 1 upwards, children will be sitting in forward facing rows.
September Update
Final clarification of arrangements for the new term will be announced on Wednesday 26th August. We will update you on items such as lunch boxes, PE kits, water bottles, etc. Thank you for your patience with this matter.
Advice regarding anxiety in children returning to school
We understand that there may be some of your children experiencing levels of anxiety or worries about returning to school after such a long time and also still trying to understand the pandemic which has swept our nation.
Virtual Sports Day 2020
Note from Mrs Smith (PE teacher) I hope that you are well, enjoying the sunshine and getting lots of exercise. I am sure that you know that this is the time of year that you would normally compete in your school Sports Day. However, Sports Day will be quite a lot different this year. Whether you are in school or at home, I would like you to practice and record your scores in five different activities. You will have done these in PE either with Mr Allen, or your with me, so try to remember all of the things that you have learnt.
