Start/End of Day (Communication) • The children are already getting into the habit of coming into school on their own in the mornings which is a great support in developing their responsibility and independence. • Should you wish to discuss anything with us we will be available after school unless there is anything that is crucial to support your child's learning that day. Tuesdays are our staff meetings so we may have limited time that evening. • Please come and see us if you are unsure, concerned or worried. • If your child is going home with someone else or going to a club, please send them in with a note in the morning to let us know. This will avoid us having to disturb you with a phone call to confirm the arrangement.
PE days and Kit • This term, we have PE on Wednesday afternoons. The PE timetable is subject to change so it is important that the children have their PE kit in school every day. Due to Future Stars coaching sessions, PE days could change each term. • Changing independently and being responsible for belongings. • PE kit should be: T-shirt (coloured), shorts, jumper, tracksuit bottoms and trainers. • Long hair must be tied back for PE days. • If your child has their ears pierced please make sure that they do not wear earrings on their PE day.
