F2 Phonics Family Learning

We had a fabulous family learning session today. It was so lovely to see all of our children and families being really immersed in the phonics activities and for the children to show off the skills that they have learned already.

A big thank you to all of our grown ups who attended and for making the afternoon really special. We hope that you enjoyed it.

If you would like any more information regarding phonics please don’t hesitate to speak to a member of the F2 team.

EYFS FOOD SAFETY

Food safety advice for children age 5 and under – When sending your child with a packed lunch, please cut small round foods, like grapes, strawberries and cherry tomatoes, lengthways and into quarters. Cut large fruits like melon, and hard fruit or vegetables like raw apple and carrot into slices instead of small chunks.

Many thanks for your support.

Reception- Community Crew!

Today Reception had their very first Community Crew Meeting and what can I say?! Wonderful behaviour, stunning singing and beautiful work! The children were so kind and happy for their friends who had a special shout out. Here are our HOWL point winners and crew champions this week!

Reception enjoying movement!

This week the children in reception enjoyed a hall session exploring movement. The children learned new words such as ‘balance’ and ‘control’ and had to use their bodies to use animal actions and balance in games. The children had lots of fun playing ‘The zookeeper!’ and making their bodies as tall and wide as they could and moving as fast and slow as they could! Here are some of our actions caught on camera!

Design a library!

This year, we are working hard to raise money to develop our reading for pleasure library so firstly, we would like to say a huge thank you for all your sponsors from the colour run which will go along way to helping us!

Secondly, we still need your help! We would love for you to help us design the library based on the space we have to use which is the foyer area near the hall.

Please design your ideal library and share your plans with Miss Knowles in person or at [email protected] This is for everyone across school to get involved in! Please send your plans by 7th October.

We can’t wait to see your fantastic ideas which will help us design the perfect library!
