Theme of the week
Attendance
99.1%
Reading Challenge
Well done Year 6 pupils who read on
average 4.8 times per week at home.
The average elsewhere in school is
much less than this at the moment.
Our aim is for every child to be
reading 5.0 times per week at home.
Please help us meet our challenge by
listening to your child read regularly
and signing their reading journal when
they have done so.
Attendance
Attendance currently stands at 99.1%.
This is outstanding! Well done
everybody. Please continue to make
sure your child is in school every day
unless they are ill. Our target for
attendance this year is 98%+.
Child Safety
We expect parents to stay with
Reception and KS1 pupils until they are
safely inside the building at 8.45am.
Key Stage Two pupils should make
their way to the rear playground in the
morning and not play on the KS1
playground.

We are fortunate to have Mrs Macleod delivering
our Forest School sessions again this year.
Arrangements will be the same as last year.
Please make sure you send your child in their own
clothes on their Forest School day and remember
that they are likely to get dirty! The children will
be working outdoors whatever the weather so
please make sure that their clothes are suitable
for the weather on the day.
