    Kind reminder. 

    Hopefully the weather will be warming up now. Please can we ask that children have sun cream applied on the warmer days. Hats, water bottles at school everyday and all your child's belongings are labelled.

    This will ensure the items are returned to the correct child.

    Parent information. 

    Dear Parent/Carer

    It has been lovely to welcome the children back to school after the Christmas break. They have been very busy getting used to new routines and learning new skills.

    We just have a couple of reminders:

    The school day starts at 8:45am and finishes at 3:30pm

    P.E.  - will be on a Monday so children need to come to school in their P.E. kits.

    P.E. kits consist of:

    • White t-shirt and black or navy blue shorts/ leotard
    • Plimsoles/trainers
    • Tracksuits for colder weather
    • Please remove ear piercings for all PE lesson

    Please remember to bring a water bottle to school every day; it is separate from their lunch juice and contains only water.

    Please remember to name all items of clothing, bags, water bottles, lunch bags, hats

    Please continue to support your child in holding and using cutlery when eating.

    Please also support your child in recognising and writing their name.

    Many Thanks
