Now that the weather is a bit warmer, we are hoping to spend all day at our Outdoor learning site on Wednesdays.  This will mean that your child will require:

 ·        packed lunch on these days

·        non-uniform – suitable for the weather forecast, sunhat etc

We feel that the safest and most efficient way would be to use the platform Zoom. Each class teacher will set up their meetings and send the links to you. We will operate a waiting room to ensure confidentiality and will record the meetings for safeguarding purposes. The recordings will not be used for any other purposes.

The meetings have been set for Wednesday 28th April and Wednesday 5th May and signing up sheets for timings will be available in the car park after school from this Thursday, 22nd April. If neither of those dates are not suitable, please contact the teacher to arrange an alternative. If you would prefer telephone consultation this can also be arranged through the class teacher.

Non-uniform required

Our annual duck race can go ahead this year on Friday 7th May. The children really do enjoy watching and cheering the ducks along the stream.

Your support is as always very much appreciated, especially in these strange times still.  

PLEASE RETURN ALL NON SOLD TICKETS AND MONEYTO THE SCHOOL OFFICE BY WEDNESDAY 5TH MAY

The class will be visiting a ‘real’ farm to help ignite their interest in this terms topic ‘Down on the Farm’. Whilst at the farm we will have the opportunity to see some animals and tractors close up, as well as exploring in nature.

Due to coronavirus restrictions we will not be using a coach for this trip and we ask parents/ carers to drop children directly to the farm.

Arrival between 9.10 – 9.25am

Collection between 3.00 - 3.15pm-Please follow the one-way route

Suitable clothing: Everyone should wear practical outdoor activity clothing that you don’t mind getting dirty. Everyone MUST wear LONG TROUSERS with trainers,wellies or boots and longer socks (not trainer socks) that you can tuck your trousers into. This is because there are lots of areas of long grass with hidden nettles, brambles and other scratchy things. Trousers will also help prevent ticks biting. Due to the muddy areas and stream access, wellies are best.

Sun protection: Please apply sunscreen before the trip and ensure they have a hat.

Packed Lunch: Please send your child with a packed lunch and a bottle of water. We can refill their water bottles and we will bring fruit for snack time.
