Weekly Message from Mrs Clayton
We have had a wonderfully busy and joyful start to the term. This week saw the launch of Rock Steady music lessons, which have already been met with great excitement from the children. There is still time for parents to sign up if you would like your child to take part.
As part of our Year of Reading, we continue to encourage all parents to read regularly with their children and to help nurture a lifelong love of books. Sharing stories together at home makes such a powerful difference to children’s confidence, imagination and learning. Remember to engage in our phonics virtual classrooms, use the eBook library and sign your children's reading records.
Today we were delighted to welcome Fr Albert, who visited all of our classes and introduced himself and his work to the children. Our youngest learners in Cygnets especially enjoyed meeting him for the first time.
Looking ahead to next week, we are very much looking forward to celebrating the Feast Day of St Anne Line, a special occasion in our school calendar. We are also excited that our Starstruck Club will be travelling to London to see Hercules – a truly memorable experience for the children involved.
Finally, we are placing a big focus on handwriting across the school and the use of the Perfect Pencil Grip. When your children are writing at home, please help us by encouraging them to hold their pencil correctly to support neat, confident writing.
Thank you, as always, for your continued support.
Wishing you all a lovely weekend.
