Well done - a super start!

Thank you to all the children and families for making this week such a wonderful start to being in Apple class.

The children’s enthusiasm to play together and learn was super and we are very proud them.

We’re looking forward to next week.  Here are some reminders and requests…

P.E. kit Tuesdays – Every Tuesday, children should come to school wearing their P.E kit and they can stay in it all day at school. This helps us to get straight into our physical activities and keeps the day running smoothly!

Wellington Boots – We would like to encourage every child to bring a named pair of wellies that can stay at school.  These are perfect for outdoor learning activities such as the mud kitchen or exploring on the wet, muddy grass.

Family Photographs -  We would really like each child to bring in a family photograph that can stay in school.  These will be displayed in our classroom and used as a lovely way to spark conversations, build connections and celebrate each child’s home life.

Your next big learning adventure awaits!

Mrs Allen and Mrs Lugg are looking forward to welcoming you!
