We would like to thank you for your support throughout the year and wish you and your families well for the much-earned summer break. We have enjoyed a wonderful year with you and your children, and we are very pleased with the progress they have made over the year. We wish them well for Year 1 and beyond.

You will receive a parent survey on Monday. We kindly ask if you would take some time to reflect on your year with us and let us know your thoughts. Your comments are very welcome so please complete one of our questionnaires on Monday. These can be completed, folded and dropped into the brown Parent comment box in the hallway on the bench near Chelsea Class.

The children will be having a picnic lunch with their classes on Tuesday. Please pack a healthy packed lunch in a disposable bag for Tuesday.

Kind Regards,

Reception Team [/dropshadowbox]

[dropshadowbox align="none" effect="lifted-both" width="auto" height="" background_color="#ffffff" border_width="20" border_color="#29d137" ]Dear Parents, Carers

We would like to invite you to join us at our Reception Sports Day on Tuesday 16th July. Please send your child dressed in their PE kit on Tuesday. They will not need their bookbags or uniforms on Tuesday. School lunch will be provided for the children at 12.00.

The school gate on Dering Road will open at 10.15am for parent entry. Reception Sports Day is organised and led by trained Year 6 pupils who will lead the children around a circuit of activities arranged around the Key Stage 1 and 2 playgrounds. So when you arrive, please ask a member of staff or Year 6 sports leader to locate the activity station where your child will be. Please follow your child’s colour group around the circuit of activities and help cheer them on. Reception Sports Day will end at approximately 11.45 and we will gather together to congratulate the children.

At Reception Sports Day all children are winners because they all take part. We encourage all parents to support this ethos as the children develop their understanding of good sportsmanship. You may say a quick goodbye and congratulations to your child before we lead them off to lunch at 12.00. We hope you enjoy the morning with us.

Thank you for returning reading books and yellow diaries. We will continue to check word lists until the end of the week. If your child has not completed all 24 lists, they will continue with these into Year 1.

You can expect to receive your child’s end of year school report by Wednesday, 17th July. You will also be informed about your child's Year 1 class teacher via the school report. If you have any questions about your child's report please attend our drop-in session on Thursday 18th July from 3.40pm – 5.40pm

Kind Regards
Miss Pillay
