General information...
PE
This term, we will have PE on a Monday and Tuesday. On this day your child should attend school in their PE kit. Children should wear black shorts/leggings/tracksuit bottoms, their yellow PE top and green hoodie. If your child does not have a green hoodie or it is being washed from the previous day, they should attend in their normal school jumper or cardigan rather than their own sports jacket. Please make sure that hair is tied back and remove your child's earrings on this day before they attend school if they cannot take them out themselves. Under exceptional circumstances earrings can be covered with plasters but these must be provided by you and kept in school.
Water Bottles
Please remember you need a water bottle in school every day. We will send them home every night for a wash and refill.
Book Bags
Please bring your book bag in every day with your reading book, reading record and homework book inside. Children on RWI will have their books changed on a Monday and Thursday. Children accessing Guided Reading should indicate to us when they have read all of their book and we will change it whenever is needed.
