Each year, we teachers start out so hopeful and excited to begin the new journey with your child. We come in with hopes and dreams of what the year will be like - and all of those visions include good things for your child. Whilst we are willing to put in the effort, the hours, the creativity, the enthusiasm - having your support results in your child's overall success and helps them to Reach For The Stars!

General Reminders
PE – PE will take place every Tuesday afternoon. Please make sure your child has their full PE kit in every week.
Reading Books - Please make sure children have their reading books and reading journals in school every day.
Homework – Homework will be given to take home every Friday and handed back into school on a Monday. It is important that you encourage and support your children with their homework, but please do not do it for them.
Spellings – Children will be given their new list of words to learn every Friday. These are put in their homework books and a spelling quiz will take place every Friday afternoon.
Times Tables – It is imperative that children regularly practise their times tables. As part of their homework, children will bring home weekly times tables. We will have a weekly Times Table quiz every Thursday.
Water bottles - We encourage all children to bring in their own water bottle which they have access to throughout the day.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to arrange a meeting with me at the school office at any time.
Thank you for your continued support.
