Children will write their weekly spellings in their reading record to practise at home and I will also display them on the class page and in our classroom. Please encourage your child to practise their spellings at home in  a random order, as they will not be read in order in our weekly spelling test.

Your child will bring home multiple reading books every Tuesday and they should be handed back into school and changed for new books on the following Tuesday. We will still be listening to children read daily. Please sign your child's reading record regularly, it is greatly appreciated.

Our PE lessons will be held outdoors for the foreseeable, therefore please make sure your child arrives at school in appropriate PE wear. 

If you have any queries or concerns please do not hesitate to speak to me as soon as you can. If you need to inform me of some information please leave a note in your child's reading record for me to view. However,  I will be unable to write back in your child's diary so if a reply is needed please contact the school office to pass a message onto me and I will contact you.
