Autumn Term Theme 

This term we are excited to explore our theme: 'Marvellous Me', a joyful celebration of what makes each child special and unique.  Throughout the theme, children will have the chance to talk about themselves, their families and the people who care for them.  They will share stories about their favourite things, their homes, and what makes them feel safe and happy.  As we explore emotions, children will learn to name their feelings, understand how others might be feeling and build kind caring friendships.  We will also be learning about our amazing bodies, what they can do how to look after them and how healthy choices like eating well, staying clean, getting rest and being active help us feel our best.  Marvellous Me is all about helping children build confidence, develop important social and emotional skills and feel connected to the world around them.  It is a wonderful way to start the year and lay the foundations for happy, healthy learning. 

Staying Connected

We understand the importance of seeing and knowing what your child does day to day in school. There are a few ways you can stay connected to us and see first hand what your child has been learning. Firstly by logging onto Class Dojo and looking on our class and school pages and secondly by following our school Twitter page.  To use Class Dojo your child will be given a unique log in at the start of the school year.  Just download the App, use the unique log in and you can start following what your child is doing in school straight away.  If you need a new log in for any reason, please let us know and we can get it sent to you straight away. 

Miss Shellard also sends out a weekly newsletter which is packed with important information and dates, please take time to read it every Friday. 

How to support your child at home

There are lots of ways to help support your child at home using different apps, online games and other real-life opportunities . We will keep updating this page with new ideas.

Reading

When your child is ready for a reading book, we will provide them with a reading record and reading book. We would like to encourage you to read with your child as often as you can. 

Class Information

Children are encouraged to bring in a bottle of water each day, clearly labelled with their name. We encourage the children to keep drinking throughout the day to stay healthy! 

We also have milk each day alongside a healthy snack such as fruit. Children are welcome to bring in fruit every day or alternatively we provide a range of fruit for the children to try each day in class as part of our rolling snack sessions. 

Physical Literacy

Our PE day is a Friday, we ask that your child wears comfortable clothes i.e joggers, t.shirt, hoodie and trainers every Friday. It is also recommended that you ensure that your child has a water bottle with them clearly  labelled with their name.
