Reading: Your child would have received a home reader and reading journal. Please read with your child every night. In the reading journal, write a comment about their reading and sign to acknowledge you have listened to them. Children are reminded to change their books during the morning activity time with Mrs Foti.
Book bags: Please ensure your child brings his/her book bag to school every day, as it is a means of transporting reading materials safely and it is a valuable method of communication. Please check your child’s bag every evening.
Uniform: Please ensure all items of clothing (PE kits and uniform) are clearly labelled with your child’s first and last name.
PE kits: Our PE days are Monday and Wednesday. Please ensure your child’s PE kit is at school every Monday morning.
Thank you for your support,
Mrs Richards and Mrs Foti
