About this year group

Reading books

Children are expected to read daily. If children are on Accelerated Reader then they can quiz and change their book everyday except Wednesday. The quiz will check the children's comprehension of what they have read, so we ask that they read their book at least twice before quizzing. If children are working on the ELS phonics then their reading books will be changed once a week in line with the scheme.

PE

PE days are Mondays and Wednesdays. Children should come into school wearing their school PE kit. Trainers should have Velcro until your child can tie their own shoe laces.

Library

Children visit the school library on Wednesdays. They will bring a book home, these books are to share and enjoy rather than the children to read by themselves. Please ensure children return their book every Wednesday so that they can choose a new book.

Spellings

Spelling quizzes take place on Monday, please see the homework section of the website for the weekly words, or check inside your child's homework book.

Homework

Homework is set weekly, please check your child's homework book weekly.

Devon & Cornwall police are offering free seatbelt covers to any drivers/passengers with communication or speech & language needs to help make things easier if an incident occurs on the road. The cover contains a card which allows you to add all crucial information including their name, age, address, medical conditions and how they like/need to be communicated with. You can collect from your local PEO (Police Enquiry Office) which could be Crownhill Police Station. You can Google search to see where your local one is and you just need to pop in and they’ll ask how many you need. It’s as easy at that! Peace of mind for you as parents! 💙

Mission NO LOST JUMPERS OR COATS ‼️Thank you to PTFA for purchasing permanent pens for each class so that coats and jumpers can all names in class (if not already!) We have soooooo much lost property already - first step to avoiding this so that we can return property to the right child! ⭐️⭐️⭐️

A big welcome to our new Foundation children and families! 👋👋👋 The children have settled into school very well - from finding their coat pegs to carrying their tray around the dinner hall! 🍽️ They have been exploring their new environment by learning new rules and routines and making some new friendships! 👬👭👫 They have also been lucky to have their parents join them for dinner this week and Mr Nicholls and Mrs Llewellyn will be visiting over the next few days to read a story to each class! 📚 Just a reminder to our new families to contact your child’s teacher if you need a Tapestry log-in as we are all set up! ⭐️
