Dear all

Our forest school time has changed to a Tuesday afternoon.  Please can you continue to ensure the children have warm clothes, gloves, hats,wellies etc as the forecast suggests we may be in for a cold snap following the unseasonably warm weather we have enjoyed in the last couple of weeks.

PE will now be on a Friday afternoon, we are lucky to be having Johnny Hughes coaching again for this session.   This may be indoors or outside so if children could have everything they may need In school it will help the lesson start promptly.

Any questions please do ask.

Dear Parents

I hope you have all enjoyed a lovely Christmas with your children and I wish you a very happy New Year.

In Rhino class this half term we are very privileged to be working with Neil Homer on a programme called “Reading the Game”.  This programme is being delivered in conjunction with the  Shrewsbury Town FC in the Community.  The programme captures the motivational power of football and sport to inspire children to read more and improve their English skills.  This is a six week programme that will start this Tuesday and be delivered in school each Tuesday afternoon for the six weeks.  This will form part of our PE lesson as the session is half classroom based and half practical outside playing sport.

Please can you ensure your child has their PE kit on Tuesdays from 8th January 2019.  It is really cold now so for some children shorts or leggings are not warm enough and I am happy for them to wear tracksuits bottoms and fleece tops over their PE kit (whatever is comfy but keeps them warm enough to enjoy the session, I know I will be wrapping up to join in too).

Please could children also have their indoor PE kit in school as we will be doing gymnastics when hall availabity allows.

Forest school will continue on a Thursday as usual and again please ensure your child has warm and waterproof clothes and wellies.  If the weather is dreadful, Forest School will move indoors but we do aim to get the children out into the environment as much as possible.

Our topic for this term is “Frozen Kingdom”, we hope the children will be inspired by all of the aspects this topic has to offer.  Look out for the homework jigsaw, this enables them to get creative and we welcome all of the things they have made into school.

Should you have any questions please do ask.

Kind regards

Mrs Wenlock

Dear all

The weather seems to have really changed this week to more wintery temperatures.  Please can we ensure all the children have warm clothes and coats to wear to school, we still like them to get fresh air at break and lunch times.  There does seem to be a lot of clothing going missing, I have asked the children to make sure their clothing is named so it is more easily returned if they misplace it.

Mrs Wenlock.
