Missing Sweatshirt

Please could you check that your child has brought the correct sweatshirt home, as Josh (Davies) in Class 3 has lost his which has his name clearly marked inside it.

If you could check that all of your child’s uniform and coat are labelled with their name, we would be very grateful.

Many thanks.

Photoclub get snapping

After a foggy start, the sun came out for Photoclub this week and Ernie, Ava and Ella were able to get outside to take photos in good light for a change. They had a great time concentrating on man-made objects thinking about colour and shape for close up shots. All the kids have a good eye for interesting objects and just need a little practise at knowing the limits of how close their camera lens can focus and holding the camera steady enough to avoid camera shake blur.

Well done Ernie for winning last week’s medal. Ernie took an exceptional variety of striking nature close ups in our forest school area. Keep it up Ernie!

Year 6 Parents – SATs Meeting

Year 6 parents are invited to an informal SATS meeting on Monday 17th March at 3:20 in Class 5. I will provide an overview of SATs week, discuss ways in which you can continue to support your child with SATs preparation and answer any questions you may have. Year 6 children are encouraged to attend as well and should you have difficulty in childcare for younger siblings please do not hesitate to speak to me beforehand; I am sure another member of staff would be happy to help out on this occasion and keep an eye on younger children whilst the meeting takes place, if you feel that they may not want to join us in Class 5!

Thank you.
