Notices & Reminders:

  

Reminders:

 

Please ensure all children bring a raincoat to school. Children can bring a pair of wellies and leave them in their cloakroom to use if needed.

 

Please ensure your child comes with a water bottle (water only, not squash). Please provide a healthy afternoon snack, such as a fruit or a vegetable, for your child. Morning fruit is provided by the school.

 

Reading books- Please fill in the reading record with the book name and an adult’s initials so we can track how much your child is reading. Once your child has read a book at least three times, they can exchange it for a new one in class. Reading records should be brought to school every day. Please note that Little Wandle books will be given to your child on their third read. These books need to be returned the following week to receive a new Little Wandle book.

 

Please see below the links detailed about phonics and the correct pure sound pronunciation.

If you have an iPad please upload PocketPhonic Stories. This is an app that is excellent for teaching handwriting, phonics and reading. You will need to log in for your child but then they should be able to complete these on their own. There are certificates you can print off to motivate your child.
