Please note this half term PE will be on Tuesdays and Wednesdays.

Please ensure your childs PE kit is in school, long hair is tied up and earrings are taken out!

Thank you,

Spring is FINALLY on the way!

Welcome back everyone! I hope you all enjoyed the half term break and enjoyed some quality time together, despite the terrible weather! Hopefully we will start to see some Spring sunshine soon and lighter mornings and evenings at last!

The children have all settled back in well and everyone is working hard already, trying their very best! Well done Year 1, you are doing a fabulous job!

Class routines remain the same moving forward. Book changes start on Tuesdays of each week and, as usual, spellings and homework will be given out on Mondays and Wednesdays each week.

The children can still choose a book from our class library area each Thursday and they can change it every Thursday afternoon. They can of course keep it for longer than a week if they'd like to. Please encourage your children to share these books with you - they choose them themselves, with no input from us so are keen to read them! It gives them the opportunity to read books other than those from the reading scheme too. 

We are currently looking into our Knowsley Safari Park trip which fits into our Jungle topic. We are all looking forward to it enormously. We will update you as soon as we have a date set. If you would like to put your name forward to be responsible for a group, you are most welcome. Please just let myself of Mrs Sivyer know. Many thanks in advance. Names will be pulled out of a hat if we have a high number of volunteers. A letter will be going out to all parents reagrding the trip in the near future.

We also have our Year 1 Class assembly towards the end of this half term too. The children are all looking forward to sharing all the hard work they do with you. I'm sure you will all be very proud!

Lots to look forward to as always, in what is sure to be a busy but fun-filled half term. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask when you see me or Mrs Sivyer out and about in the mornings or after school. We do also have Parents Evenings coming up where we can, of course, discuss the fantastic progress your children are making in Year 1. 

Thank you,

Mrs Gaulton and Mrs Sivyer.
