General Guidance

P.E. will be mainly outside this term (Weds and Fri). Please ensure your child has shorts, tracksuit bottoms and a T-shirt as well as trainers or daps that have not been worn as shoes that day.  Also please ensure that all items of clothing are clearly marked with your child's name.  I am sorry but for health and safety reasons, we are unable to give out birthday cake.

Parent's Role

Please ensure that all children complete their homework and return it to school at the correct time.  Spellings will come home on a Monday to be learned for Friday.  Homework will be sent out on Thursday or Friday to be returned on the following Monday.  Please read and if necessary respond to all letters received.  If your child achieves in any way outside school please inform us so that we can celebrate that achievement.
