Reminders for Summer Term 2025
Summer Term 1 Highlights: This term we have started a new P.E scheme, all children have taken part in Team Building and Athletics. Robin and Squirrel have been doing Team Building together – it has been wonderful to see children working in new pairs and groups, working together to solve problems.
Please can you make sure your child has a coat and a sunhat at school every day. We like to take advantage of our lovely outdoor area and encourage the children to explore and investigate in the fresh air as much as possible whatever the weather (within reason!).
Please ensure your child has a named bottle filled with water with them each day.
Reading diaries will be sent home, and new eBooks assigned, on Fridays. Please return Reading Diaries to school on Mondays.
We will be sharing our favourite stories on Mondays, and on Fridays we will be celebrating children’s out of school achievements, so please send any trophies or certificates in on Fridays.
On P.E days children need to come to school on these days in their P.E kit. Our P.E days will be remaining the same until 16th June – Robin: Monday and Tuesday.
These will be the P.E days from 16th June:
Robin: Tuesday and Thursday
