Thank you for attending our parent evenings.
The children are quite excited about their first school trip this week on Tuesday 13th November Thank you to all those parents who are able to join us as helpers.
Please take note of the following:
• Please arrive at school promptly at 8.50am as preparation is required before we walk to the cinema.
• Parent helpers will be provided with a guide which explains our expectations for the morning.
• If you are helping, your younger children must not accompany you as we will need your undivided attention on the day.
• For health and safety reasons we do not give the children snacks at any point during the trip, so please do not bring any snacks with you.
• At all times during the trip you will be expected to remain with your group of children and follow the leading staff member.
Have a lovely week and don’t forget to show your child the videos posted below to practise some of the things they are learning about.
Kind Regards,
Miss Kowalczyk, Miss Dale, Mrs Carden and Miss Evans[/dropshadowbox]

LITERACY
Book Focus: a selection of non-fiction books about Space

Please keep sound sheet at home and continue to practise saying and writing these sounds every day. As your child continues to learn more letter sounds they may forget the earlier sounds taught so it is important to practise daily recognition and writing (using each of the sound cues eg /a/ – round the apple , down the leaf)
