Welcome everyone to Grosvenor Class. Mrs Keer, Miss Dale and Miss Symes are looking forward to meeting you all and to an exciting first half term at “big school”

The first 2 weeks are spent concentrating on getting to know you and your children and settling them in. It is important the children feel happy and secure in Grosvenor Class in order for them to learn. Therefore in the first 2 weeks entry is staggered and the children attend only short sessions, with some lunches next week. Please refer to your handbooks for all timings and thank you for bearing with us as we settle the children in and they learn the new routines.

Our topic for this half term is “All About Me” to coincide with starting school, and work will centre around this.

Can we ask that all uniform, including P.E. Kits, coats and bookbags are named, as this helps prevent loss of belongings. Also children should have a water bottle in school every day (plain water only please).

Once the children are settled we will begin P.E. lessons and will advise you of days nearer the time.

Finally we want the transition into Reception to go as smoothly as possible so don’t hesitate to ask myself or Miss Dale if you have any questions.
