Parent Letter

Dear Parents/Carers,

I hope you all had a relaxing and restful Easter break! I’m looking forward to this term and all the exciting things that we will be doing.

For our first text in English, we will be reading ‘Speak Up! Look Up! Clean Up!’ and the children will be using their persuasive writing skills. Following this, we will be reading ‘The Proudest Blue’ and children will be writing a personal narrative. In History we will be learning about how children’s lives have changed throughout history. In Science the Year 2s will be learning about living things and their habitats, and the Year 3s will be continuing to learn about plants!

This term P.E. will be on Mondays and Tuesdays. Children will still be required to attend school in PE Kit on these days. Please ensure that your child/ children have appropriate P.E. kit and that, for health and safety reasons, earrings are removed for P.E and that anyone with hair longer than shoulder length has their hair tied back.

Please ensure children bring a named bottle of water to drink during the day and that all uniform is named to avoid things getting lost.

Children will have an optional home learning task each half term along with details of required home learning tasks. We expect your children to read for 30 minutes a week. They are also expected to complete 30 minutes of Timetables Rockstars (passwords for this will also be sent out in the coming weeks). If you would like any additional resources to support your children at home, then please contact me through the office.

If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me via the school office or at the door at drop off or pick up. I am excited for what the rest of the school year will bring.

Kind regards,

Miss Emma Barron
