Term 6 2022
To our dear Fledglings,
Welcome back to term 6 in Fledglings.
· Projects, Plans and Routines – This term our learning will be based around the topic of ‘Sizzling Summer Time' . The children will be taking part in lots of exciting and challenging activities. We will be looking at:
* Listening to summer themed stories and poems
* Joining in with summer songs and rhymes
* Finding out about summer holidays, picnics and fun days out
* Creating a small world beach for role-play
* Planting and looking after our own summer garden
* Taking part in sports week
* Enjoying a summer walk to the park and an ice cream!
We will also introduce the children to our new phonics scheme, 'Little Wandle' and will continue to send home work for you to look at with your child.
It would be very helpful if you could please provide a spare set of clothes for your child to change into if they get wet or dirty. Please also send in a pair of NAMED welly boots that can stay at school.
P.E. – Reception children will continue to take part in a P.E. session on Friday mornings. Please make sure your Reception child comes to school WEARING their P.E. kit on Friday and remember to remove their jewellery and tie back long hair. Thank you.
Thank you for your continued support, please do make an appointment to come and see us if you have any worries or concerns, alternatively speak to the office and we can phone you and have a chat at the end of the day
With love from, Mrs Ervine, Mrs Lead, Sarah, Sophie, Tanya, Davina and Kim xxxxxx
Dear parents/carers,
Please click on the links below to access the remote learning resources for the appropriate week of the school closure.
Below you will find extra links to websites and documents which will give you additional guidance on organising some focussed learning at home if you choose.
Starting with a Story - visit White Rose Maths for some activities based on stories.
We are also asking that children please bring a NAMED bottle of water with them into class each day. This means that they can take their own bottle outside with them on warmer days and we can encourage all of the children to drink more…especially during the afternoon sessions. Thank you.
Please click on the link below for details of our price list and session times.
