IMPORTANT INFORMATION

What to bring: Each day, book bags should be brought to school and in them your homework diary, reading book and water bottle. Please ensure to bring a coat every day.

Reading Books: Fox Class will choose a book which they would like to read and this will be their reading book for both home and school. It is important that this book comes into school every day. Please ensure children have noted in their homework diaries when they have read at home.

PE:  Fox Class will be doing PE on Monday and Wednesday. Children will continue to come in their PE kit for the entire day on Monday and Wednesday. Please ensure children are not wearing earrings on these days. If they cannot remove them, they won’t be able to take part in the lessons. On PE days, children should come to school in a plain white t-shirt, plain dark coloured joggers or shorts, plain dark coloured jumper (not school jumper), trainers or pumps.

Please always feel free to come and see us before or after school should you need to discuss anything. We are looking forward to working in partnership with you all,
