Time Keeping

Doors are opened at 08:50am and locked again at 09:00am.

Any pupil arriving after 9:00am will need to enter through the main entrance and inform Mrs Curnow of their attendance and whether they are having school dinners or packed lunch.

Class Dojo

We will continue to use Class Dojo as a means of communicating with you.

Please ensure you have downloaded the app to your phone.

You are also able to contact us via Dojo messenger for any queries you may have.

Uniform

All pupils are expected to wear school uniform. 

Uniform is as follows:

White polo shirt/blouse/shirt

Grey skirt/pinafore/trousers

Royal blue cardigan/jumper/hoody (does not require the school logo)

Black shoes

On designated P.E.days, pupils are permitted to wear their P.E. kit to school. 

Our PE day is a Tuesday.

Following WG Guidance re: COVID-19, we ask that pupils wear clean uniform every day. We advise parents/carers to wash clothes daily as soon as children return from school.

Reading 

As a school, we have moved from using the Ginn reading scheme and have now introduced Oxford Reading Tree. 

Due to the number of books we have, the Oxford Reading Tree books will not be sent home with pupils. 

Pupils will bring home sounds and words to practice daily. Please return these to school each day.

Please try to listen to your child read as often as possible. Remember, 5 minutes each evening is better than 15 minutes once a week!

Homework 

Homework will be sent every Friday. 

We ask, where possible, for all homework to be completed by Monday. 

Please work with your child to help them complete their homework, but we kindly ask that pupils write their answers/responses themselves.

It is also important that pupils are given the opportunity to talk about what they have done. If they are asked to write or mark make about a topic please allow them to do this themselves and then write next to it what they say their marks mean.

Clothing & Personal Belongings

Please ensure that all items of clothing, as well as drawstring bags, packed lunch bags and water bottles are clearly labelled with your child's name.

Pupils should avoid bringing any unnecessary items into school.

 We do not allow pupils to bring in bags/rucksacks etc, only their reading bag, water bottle and packed lunch bag/box (if not having a school lunch).

Packed Lunches

As a school, we continuously encourage and promote healthy packed lunches.

Playtime Snacks

Pupils are only permitted to eat fruit or cereal bars at playtimes.

Drinks

Pupils are only permitted to drink water throughout the school day. 

Please therefore ensure that if you are providing your child with a drink for use during the day, bottles are only filled with plain water (this does not include drinks with packed lunches).

At present, water fountains remain out of use. However, pupils can refill their water bottle from the classroom taps which are safe for drinking purposes.
