Class Dojo

Thank you to everyone who has signed up to class dojo. It is the quickest way to contact us directly with any questions or concerns you may have.

PE Kit Reminder

Please remember that all children need to come to school in their PE kit every Monday and Thursday. The PE uniform is a plain red t-shirt, plain black short and trainers. Please could you make sure that they are wearing plain black tracksuit pants in the colder, wetter weather. Earrings must be removed before they come to school on these day. 

Water Bottles

Please could all children bring a water bottle to school every day. Water only please. 

School Uniform

Please remember that all children should wear school uniform for the duration of the school day. Children are permitted to wear boots for outdoor use but should have black school shoes in school to change into. All uniform must be labelled. 

Homework

Homework will be set on Monday and given to the children in their homework folder. Please return the homework by Monday the next week. Completed homework will be rewarded with Dojo points.  

Each week your child will come home with 2 reading books. 

One book will link with the phonics being taught in class and the books set on-line through our scheme Bug Club. Your child should be able to read this independently as it is phonetically decodable. This book will have the green bug on the back

The other book will be a ‘Read with me’ book as indicated on the sticker on the front. Your child may not be able to read all the words independently and therefore this book is to be read together. This gives your child an opportunity to be supported with any vocabulary that they cannot read, promotes the joy of reading in a positive way and encourages your child to read different books. You could read one page and they read the next. 

Once your child has read both books, please sign their reading record and add any comments you wish to make.
