Key Stage 1 Walk-a-thon
Across KS1 we are hoping to raise enough money to fund a community defibrillator, as part of the expedition ‘What will I do to be a hero in my community?‘.
The children will be bringing home their sponsor form today ready for the sponsored walk on Thursday 11th November.
This week in the phase: EYFS.
Take a look at the fantastic Halloween learning we have been getting up to this week. We hope everyone has a fabulous half term.
Active Fusion After School Club
We have had lots of fun this half term with Coach Luke! We have worked together as a team and have had some fab sportsmanship! A big shoutout to the KS2 children for encouraging and supporting the younger children!
Have a look at the video to see what we have been doing!
After School Club
As the weather is getting colder children coming to sports or Forest School clubs will need to have a warm change of clothes and sensible shoes in the event that we go outside. During wetter weather, for Forest school, children will need clothes/shoes that can get a little muddy. Sensible shoes and PE kit is also recommended for inside sports clubs and Cheerleading. Thank you.
Parents’ Evening
Dear Parents and Carers,
We are pleased to inform you that – after what seems like such a long time – we are able to invite you into school for our Autumn Parents’ Evening. This will take place on Tuesday 9th and Wednesday 10th November and provide you with the opportunity to meet with your child’s crew leader and discuss how they have settled into their new year group.
This year, we will be using an online booking system to make securing your desired time slot as simple as possible. In order to book your appointment, please click the name of your child’s crew and complete the google form. After inputting your child’s details, you will be shown the available time slots only so the one you select will be confirmed instantly.
Appointments will be allocated on a first come, first served basis so we recommend that you book your appointment as soon as possible. If you are unable to access the form, please contact the school office who will be able to support you with this.
Yours faithfully,
James Tucker
Reminder…
School Closes tomorrow (15th October) for Half Term. We’ll be back on Monday 1st November.
Changes to Our Clubs
Year 5 Crew Changes
Dear Parents and Carers,
This half-term, we have organised Year 5 into two larger crews with an additional teacher shared between both classes working with small groups and children on a 1:1 basis. This has helped Year 5 make a positive start to the new academic year and has meant we have been able to provide targeted support to really push the children’s learning on, ensuring they are fully ready to succeed in Year 5. .
After half-term, we have made the decision to return Year 5 to three smaller crews – Crew Shields, Crew MI and Crew Boswell – for the remainder of the academic year. This model worked successfully in Year 4.
Each crew will have their own dedicated teacher who will be able focus their teaching on a smaller class group and continue to build on the strong, positive relationships they have developed with the children this half-term.
Crew MI and Crew Boswell will remain in their existing Year 5 classrooms and Crew Shields will move into one of our upstairs classrooms. As a result of this move, Crew Shields will enter and leave school via the entrance to the left of the main office which is currently used by Year 3 and 4 after half-term.
Parents of children in Year 5 will receive a message today via ParentPay confirming which crew their child will be in and which of the three classrooms will be their crew base. The children have circled up to share this news and are excited to start next half-term in their new crews.
Thank you in advance for your understanding and support. As always, all decisions made are done so in the best interests of our children and to ensure we are able to provide the very best possible education for them.
Yours faithfully,
James Tucker
