Key Information
PE
PE will take place on Mondays and Fridays. In line with school policy, children are required to wear their PE kit to school on these days.
Children should not wear earrings during PE. If your child cannot remove earrings themselves, please ensure that they do not wear them to school on Mondays & Fridays, or provide paper tape to cover them for the lesson. As with all school uniform, please label all of your child’s PE kit to ensure it's safe return to you.
In addition, please ensure children continue to keep a pair of wellies in school to accommodate any outdoor learning, play times or activities on the school field whatever the weather!
Reading
The Read Write Inc. scheme continues in year 1 where reading and phonics is taught daily in the classroom. Reading with your child is the main way you can support their development. Therefore, we ask you to read at least three times a week (although preferably daily) and record this each time in their reading journals.
Home Learning
- Your child is expected to read at least three times weekly with an adult at home.
- Later in the year you will receive a list of the Year 1 spellings that your child is to learn. Please help them to practice these words at home. We will also be re-enforcing these within our English lessons.
Thank you for all your support.
