Snack Time:
Children can bring in a water bottle to keep in class to drink throughout the day, please ensure only plain water is in the bottles and they are labelled with the child's name (they can be refilled as needed).
The children are provided with fruit daily at a cost of £1 per week. They will also be offered milk to drink.

PE is every Friday. Children should wear their PE kit to school. See our Uniform & Appearance page for details on PE kits.
School_Milk_Poster for website.pdfLiteracy:
Please help your child to learn upper and lower case letters. Also encourage correct letter formation and help them to learn keywords. We use Letters and Sounds as a phonics scheme, supplemented by the Twinkl resources.
We also encourage you to read books to your child as much as possible at home and listen to your child read books that are sent home and return to school the next day.
The children use a variety of decodable and levelled reading books in school. We are looking at using the Twinkl Go resources for home reading too.
Numeracy:
Please help your child to correctly form numbers. Some of the things we will be covering is: number recognition and formation as well as addition, subtraction, simple multiplication and division, coins up to £10, sharing amounts, measuring using things such as blocks, cubes and rulers, We will also be singing lots of number rhymes and watching numeracy videos
Personal Independence:
In school all children are encouraged to become independent in their learning. We encourage children to take off and put on jumpers, coats, socks, shoes on their own. They also have opportunites to cut up their own fruit using child safe and friendly cutlery. To support your child's independence we’d ask you to please practice these personal skills at home.To support your child's independence we’d ask you to please practice these personal skills at home.
