Latest update

Another busy week with everyone working extremely hard.

As we move closer to the annual SATs week we would like to update you on the format for the weeks ahead.
Today the children should have brought home a letter detailing the time table for the week beginning the 12th May. We have tried to arrange the timetable so that all the children have completed their tests by lunch time each day in order for the afternoons to be more relaxed with some fun activities. As you can see from the time table there will be more PE sessions that week so children need to make sure that they have their kit in school every day.

One of the art activities is creating their own T-shirt to wear on school journey and possibly in their leaving assembly at the end of the year.
These can be white or coloured, but do need to be pale in colour or the pens and fabric crayons won't show up. We would prefer them to have a short sleeve rather than a vest top so that if it is hot and sunny on our trip to the Isle Of Wight then shoulders are covered while we are ouside all day.
If there is a problem with providing a T-shirt then please speak to your child's class teacher. Children should bring the shirt they are going to use into school on Monday 12th May.

Along with the other letters that came home today is one about cycling proficiency. We do have to let the people who run this activity know definite numbers before half term so please ensure that replies are brought into school as soon as possible.

Children also brought home a letter about the trip to the Isle of Wight today. We will be talking to them about everything during school days, but please do come along to the talk on Monday 19th May, in Elder, when Mrs Doran will be talking all about the exciting activities planned.

Let's hope that the long weekend is a sunny one. See you all on Tuesday.
