KS1 Trip

You may be aware from media coverage that the NEU has declared more national strike action which will take place on Wednesday 5th. As a result, the following changes will be necessary relating to the school trips for Key Stage One children.

Tuesday 4th July – ALL Year 1 children will be visiting Sandall Beat Woods.

Wednesday 5th July – ALL Year 2 children will be visiting Sandall Beat Woods.

We will be leaving school at 9 am and aim to be back at school by the end of the day. Children will need to order a school packed lunch or bring one from home.  It is essential that all children bring a water bottle with them.

We will be spending most of the day outside, so children will need to wear appropriate and comfortable clothing (wellies, trainers, jumpers, joggers, t-shirt, shorts, sun hat, suncream and water bottle).

Please can we ask that any outstanding payments and consents are completed on the Parentpay platform.

Thank you once again for your support

Ready for a Journey – Dress Up Day Tomorrow

Hi KS1 Crew,

Just a reminder that all KS1 children can come dressed up tomorrow as if they are ready to go on a journey…

This could be as a astronaut, train driver, rocket, explorer, holiday clothes, sailor, school uniform, whatever their journey may be!

Reading and Homework in Year 1 and 2

This week the percentage of children who have recorded their reading at home is quite low.

Week 3This Week
Crew Bubb20%
Crew Carter54%
Crew Meade53%
Crew Jobber40%
Crew Lewis12%
Crew Pickering12%

To ensure the children continue to work hard and get smart, we have started a little competition between the crews.

Each FRIDAY the children will bring home a homework sheet. This will have a space to record their reading on and some maths and spelling homework.

The children will have until the following THURSDAY to complete the homework and return to their crew leader.

This will replace the reading logs.

The children that complete their home learning, will earn points towards a treat at the end of the term. But they can only earn points if they return their homework! Children will be able to complete this at school as well if needed, during a lunchtime club.

We understand that it is a whole family effort, so we will also be running a raffle for a parent prize. Each time a homework sheet is returned we will enter into a small prize draw.

Reading Records and New Books

KS1 Crew,

Please could we ask that children bring their reading logs and book bags in on a Thursday.

We will be checking all children’s reading records! We will be giving rewards out to children who are reading the most at home, whether that be their shared reader QR code, phonics book or a reading for pleasure book!

Reading bags and books will then be sent home again on a Friday.

Thank you for your continued support!
