Spring Term

As you will be able to see on our curriculum map, Spring term is full of exciting learning.  In English we will follow a theme of space and detectives.  History will see us exploring castles and we will be learning about continents in Geography.  Science will involve building with and exploring materials and finding out about different types of plants that grow in our local environment.  

Homework

It is an expectation that children are read with regularly at home (both reading themselves and being read to). Please record reading in children’s reading diaries. If children record at least four reads a week at home they will receive a star for their star charts. Children should bring their diaries into school on Thursdays for us  to check and sign.

Extra homework will be given verbally.  For example when learning about castles, children may be asked to go home and explain their learning or to find out about a specific feature of a castle.  This is often prompted by children's learning and interests during the lessons. 

PE

PE will continue to be on Mondays and Wednesdays when children must come to school wearing their PE kit which includes a  t-shirt in their house colour (not football shirts please).

Forest School

rest School is on Thursday afternoons. Children need to come into school in school uniform and bring long trousers and old clothing and boots to change into.  We go in all weathers, apart from strong wind, so please ensure clothing is appropriate for the weather that day.  Please make sure everything is clearly labelled with names.
