Further Information
Reading Books
-
Reading books and/or read, write, inc flash cards will be sent home with your child. Reading books, reading records and flash cards can be brought to school on allocated days (this information will be sent home shortly). Reading and practising sounds with your child every day (even just for 10 minutes) will have a great impact on progress.
PE
-
PE will take place every Wednesday (starting Wednesday 11th September). Pupils are asked to arrive to school wearing their PE clothes (t-shirt, joggers, trainers, etc). There will not be an opportunity to change in school.
Snack Time
-
The cost of daily snack is £1 per week. This can be paid weekly or termly (£1 a week, £8 for the next half-term or £15 for the next full term). We use any money raised (following the purchase of snack) to purchase different resources for class, for crafting, baking, etc.
-
Learners are also encouraged to bring water bottles (containing only water) to drink throughout the day.
Outdoor Learning
-
Outdoor learning is a large part of our school curriculum, and we plan to spend a lot of time learning outdoors. Should you wish for your child to change their footwear, then please send appropriate outdoor footwear (e.g. wellies) into school in a labelled bag. This can be left in school on your child’s peg. This is optional and not required.
Jumpers and Clothing
-
Please ensure all jumpers, cardigans and clothing are labelled clearly with your child’s name. We understand how expensive uniform can be and hope to avoid anything going missing.
New Piota App
-
We now have a new school app called Piota. Please keep an eye on this (as well as Twitter and our school website) for any updates, messages and information. Should you need any support to get set up, please let us know.
Thank you for your continued support. If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to contact us.
Diolch yn fawr,
Mr Patterson and Miss Rees
