Summer 2 News Week 3 June 23rd 2022

Good morning everyone,

Well done to the KS1 children who represented the school at the Astrea Olympics.

Yesterday Louie and Jacob reached the 20th milestone on our Reading Challenge and chose a book from our reading reward shop.

I am thrilled to to tell you that our Year 1 children did fantastically in the Phonics Screen with 81% of them achieving the pass mark.

Tomorrow we will be  joining Castle Academy at the KS2 Astrea Olympics.

If you have any suitable prizes for our summer fair raffle please leave them at the school office. Thank you

Have a good  day.

Mrs Mason

Yesterday we held our weekly School Council meeting. Read our notes below

Reminder- Water in bottles

Please remember that for drinks during the day the children should bring a water bottle with water in it. We do also have cups available if they forget.

Juice and squash is permitted at lunchtime if your child brings  a packed lunch.

 

Don’t forget you can wear your PE Kit on PE days.

We have been encouraging all children to wear the correct PE kit over the next few weeks.

  • Child to have a verbal warning the first time it is forgotten.
  • A text will be sent home on the second time it is forgotten.
  • A phone call home will happen on the third occasion (or speak to parents when they collect their child).

Please remember that children should not be wearing jewellery other than a watch and stud earrings. For PE these should be removed however if this is not possible we will supply the children with some tape to cover them up. This is for health and safety reasons.

PE Kit

White t shirt

Black shorts or plain  jogging trousers (in case we go outdoors)
