We are looking forward to welcoming everyone who has signed up for our Phonics Family Learning Event tomorrow. The hall doors will be open from 8:30am for adults to keep warm and have a warm drink. Please drop children off at their normal classroom doors at 8:30 and then make your way to the hall. Children will be registered in their classes and then will be brought down to work with their grownups at 9am.
In this session we will be showing you what your children do in their daily phonics and shared reading sessions and we will be sharing hints and tips about how you can help your child develop their reading fluency at home.
We really hope you can join us. Please make sure you have signed up using the link below as this will help us to prepare resources for you and your child.
Thank you,
Miss Schön and Miss Rodgers
Photographs – Miss Schon’s group working hard on developing their word count per minute this week! They are smashing it! We cant wait to show you tomorrow!
The children have written their own stories, which are based on The Ugly Duckling which has been our key text. We have spent time editing and improving them and we then made them into book, with a front cover and a blurb! They look absolutely fantastic…well done Class 8 !
Year 1 staff would like to invite you to our Phonics Family Learning event! The event will take place on Thursday 27th November 9:00am-10:00am. The session will be a live phonics lesson taught by Miss Schön or Miss Rodgers. You are invited to join your child in their phonics lesson so that you can understand how your child learns phonics in school.
Unfortunately we are unable to cater for younger siblings at this event as this will be the children’s daily phonics lesson.
The school hall will be open from 8:30am for hot drinks. Please access school via the hall. We ask that you arrive on time for a 9am start so as not to disrupt the children’s lesson with late arrivals.
It is important that we know who is attending this session so that we can place your child into a group that is most suitable for them. Please let us know if you plan to attend (or not) on the link below.
Thank you,
Miss Schön and Miss Rodgers
Thank you to everyone who was able to attend our First Presentation of Learning (POL) for our Reception children this year. We are sure you will agree that the children performed wonderfully for their very first time speaking and singing in front of an audience.
The children thoroughly enjoyed sharing their fantastic work from this term with you and had great fun singing and signing the “Happy Birthday” song. They were especially excited to present their Teddy Bears’ Birthday Party-themed POL and to participate in the activities around the hall afterward.
We sincerely appreciate your support and for taking the time to join us today.
With thanks,
The Reception Team
No 100% winner this week, however we still have two winners each with 98.95%

Please join us for our Year 5/6 presentation of learning on Thursday 4th December at 5pm!
Our presentation of learning will consist of children sharing their learning as well as showcasing their handmade product! Please note, as part of our learning, we are asking for cash donations to take the final product away with you and all money raised will go straight to the RSPCA who will also be in attendance.
We would love everyone to be there as it is a celebration of the work the children have done since September!
Please complete the Google form to let us know whether your child will be in attendance so that we can make preparations.
Thank you
