In literacy next week we will be beginning a unit of work based on Handa’s Surprise. The children will be learning to re-tell the story and will be thinking about how they can describe different fruits.

In maths next week we will be continuing our work on ordering numbers and place value.

Next week is walk to school week. If your child has walked to or from school, they will get a sticker each day. If you are unable to walk all the way from home why not park a bit further away and walk for part of the journey.

There is going to be a swimming swap on the last week before half term:

Mrs Boscher’s Class will be swimming on Monday 22nd May at 9am (usually Mrs Bramley’s Class’s time) and Mrs Bramley’s Class will be swimming at 9am on Thursday 25th May (usually Mrs Boscher’s Class time). Please could children bring their swimming kit on these days instead of their usual swimming day, just for that week. If you usually come and help, or are able to help with swimming please could you let your child’s teacher know if you are able to help with this change of date.

Please could we ask that children bring in trainers for Tuesday afternoons when we will be doing activities out on the field.

Thank you for your support
