Good evening!
The trip to Twycross Zoo is finally happening!
Just a few reminders to make the morning run as smoothly as possible;
* Doors will open at 8:40
* Regardless of whether you are driving yourself or going on the school coach, you must bring your child to school first to get their mark.
* Take your child into school, drop them in the classroom, those that are driving wait outside in usual pick up spot, and staff will bring out to you as soon as the register is finished. Those that are coming with us come into school with your child, but please where possible ask your child to sit on the carpet so that the teacher can do the risk assessment briefing with them.
*Y3 children come to the back hall door, I’ll let you in.
* If you have more than one child at our school (NOT THE Y3 children) take both children to the oldest child’s classroom.
* Once everybody registered we will let you go up to the coaches. There will be 2 double decker buses. They will have a number in the window, it does not matter which one you get on, however take a note of the number, you will need to sit on the same coach on the way back so we can check everybody is back on the coach who should be.
* If things change and you don’t need the coach back, let the coach staff know.
Me (Mrs O’Malley) and Mr Poole on coach 1
Mrs Callaghan, Miss Wilson and Mrs Walsh on coach 2
Make sure your child tries to go to the toilet if they are coming on the coach with us!
Thanks for your cooperation!
I cannot wait! Year 3s , I especially can’t wait to see you!👏🏼💕

✨ Creativity, imagination and so much learning in Year 2! ✨

Just look at these wonderful creations made by two of our Year 2

The girls have designed, created, tested, adapted and solved problems — all while following their own ideas and imaginations.

They have had to think carefully about how to make their designs work, what materials to use, how to join things together, what might need changing and how to overcome challenges when something didn’t quite go to plan. They have been designers, engineers, problem-solvers, artists and storytellers all at once! 👩‍🔬🎨✂️🧠

And this is exactly why we value high-quality continuous provision right through to Year 2. ❤️

We are passionate about giving children time, space and access to resources so that they can follow their own ideas, make their own choices and learn through play and creativity. The learning isn’t always something that can be seen in a worksheet — sometimes it’s in the conversations, the decisions, the perseverance, the mistakes, the adaptations and the “I wonder if I could…?” moments.

These girls have shown creativity, independence, critical thinking, problem-solving, fine motor skills, communication, perseverance, collaboration, planning and so much more.

Most importantly, they have been completely absorbed in something they chose to create themselves — and just look at the pride on their faces! 🥰

We are so incredibly proud of them and the wonderful creations they have designed. 🌟

This is what purposeful play and continuous provision can look like in Year 2 — and we absolutely love it! ❤️✨

Good morning!
Just a reminder to all parents including our old year 2s, today is the last day to tell us the information needed regarding the school trip to Twycross Zoo that is happening on the 2nd October (next Friday!) Old Year 2s you have regained access to Dojo so that you can message me if you are coming. I need this information regardless of whether you already paid the money and gave the info last year, I need it again as numbers have changed. I need this information from everybody today so I can sort numbers for staffing both in school and on the trip, and numbers for the coach and the zoo. If you have already done this, and lots of you have, thank you, you can ignore this post!

Good morning! Just a reminder that we are having phonics workshops tomorrow. There are 2 sessions;
9-9:45 for Reception parents
2-2:45 for Year 1 parents

This will help you to help your child read using our Monster Phonics approach. There will be lots of practical activities that you can do with them! Mrs Davey will also be able to answer any questions you may have.
We look forward to seeing you.
Of course there will be refreshments available!

Good evening everybody!
Just a reminder that we are back tomorrow.
Doors open for Nursery at 8:30
Main school doors open at 8:50.
All children should be in classrooms, ready and sat down for 9am.

Nursery children have been given a set starting date to support the settling of our youngest children. If not sure, give school a ring tomorrow or message Mrs Davey and she will respond when she has finished teaching.

Also a reminder and for those that are new to the school, if you have a child either in the Juniors or in our Nursery, you are able to drop them off at our breakfast club at 8:30. They don’t get breakfast but it saves you either rushing to get to the Juniors or hanging about outside Nursery waiting for main school to open. This is free. If you want to drop them off before this, it is chargeable.

See you tomorrow!
I’ll be on the front door, if anybody needs me!

Happy Sunday everybody!! We are back next Tuesday. Enjoy the rest of your time with your babies! I hope you have all had...
