Governor Visit

Today, some of our governors spent the morning in school and they visited each class after joining us for our medals assembly. The children really enjoyed talking about what they were learning and sharing their work.  On behalf of all the staff and children, we would like to say thank you to Shirley, Francesca and Mary-Lou for their time and we are looking forward to our governors visiting again on next year’s Governor Visit Day.

Bikeability

Please can Year 5 and 6 children remember to bring their bike and helmet to school next week.  The children have been told which days they will be taking part in the training and may leave their bike and helmet at school overnight if they wish.  Just to remind them that they will need to dress in clothing appropriate for the weather i.e. waterproof coat, school t-shirt/shirt and sweatshirt with trousers/ leggings/jogging bottoms and suitable footwear. If they have waterproof trousers it might be a good idea to bring those and they may also wish to bring gloves and also a spare pair of socks in case their feet get wet!

Car Park

As in previous requests, please can we stress again that the disabled spaces on the school car park should only be used by drivers with a disabled parking permit/badge. Could we also remind drivers dropping children off at Breakfast Club that they should drive out of the car park at an appropriate speed to safeguard pedestrians and other drivers. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.

Christmas Baubles

If children are decorating the bauble they brought home last week, as part of the Coop competition, please can they return the bauble to school by Friday 4th December.

Letters home this week:

Choir events – all choir children

U10s football – 9 children involved

Have a lovely weekend.

Mrs Johnson and staff

 

 

Class 3 Homework – due in Friday 4th December

This week’s homework is on division which we have been doing a lot of work on in class this week. The children are really beginning to get the hang of solving division problems so this homework is a good opportunity to reinforce what they have been learning.

Please let me know if you have any problems.

All groups are only expected to do the first page except Fiennes group who are only expected to do the second page.

Class 2 Tennis

Just a reminder that class 2 have tennis lessons every Friday morning. Please could you ensure that all children have a warm PE kit in school (jogging bottoms, jumpers, etc) and outdoor shoes. If the weather is dry the children will be outside.

Thank you

Miss Edwards

Class 4 Homework

Dear Parents/Carers,

Homework for this week is to practise the vertical method for subtraction.

In class we have gone back over the expanded vertical method using 3 and 4-digit numbers as some children were not secure with borrowing/exchanging.

I would like children to use the following website to support their learning in school:

http://mathsframe.co.uk/en/resources/resource/48/column_subtraction

It is up to the children which level they want to play at but all questions should involve borrowing.

If you have any questions please do not hesitate to speak to myself or Mrs Foster.

Kind regards,

Mrs Chadwick

Christmas Lunch

We know it may seem a long way off yet but the school kitchen have asked if you could let them know if your child would like the Christmas lunch on Wednesday 16th December.  We will put class lists up next week for you or your child to tick their name if they think they would like a lunch on that day.

Cold weather

As the weather looks as though it may be turning colder next week, please could we remind children to bring a coat to school.

Letters home this week

Classes 1, 2,3 Nativity letter

Have a good weekend.

Class 2 Targets

The children have been given their Maths and English targets today and I have provided a copy to come home. We will be working on these in school but you may also want to work on them at home.

If you have any questions please come and see me 🙂

Have a lovely weekend

Miss Edwards

 

Class 2 Homework

I am sending home this fun activity to do with the children at home to help them with their counting in twos, fives and tens.

Clapping Times Tables Activity

We have had a go in class and the children really enjoyed it, however they do need a lot of practise.

This homework doesn’t require any written work to be handed in but I will be having another go with the children on Friday 27th November. With practise at home, I am expecting the children to be a lot more confident.

Counting in twos, fives and tens is very important in class 2 and a very common target,  with most children being set this. Please encourage your children to do this activity at home whenever they can, to help them reach their target.

Any questions, please do not hesitate to come and see me.

Thank you for your support.

Miss Edwards

Class 3 Targets

If you have any questions regarding your child’s target please do not hesitate to contact me.

Thank you for your continued support.
