In the morning, the doors will be open between 8.50am and 9am. This gives the children time to settle to be ready for a prompt 9am start. 

 

We will be finishing our day at 3.30pm. 

Please do make sure that all belongings including jumpers, cardigans, PE kit, hats and even gloves are clearly labelled. Although we work hard to help the children keep track of their belongings, we often end the day with a number of un-named items which we struggle to reunite with their rightful owners. Throughout Year 1, we promote independence and encourage all children to take responsibility for their belongings. 
Please send your child into school with a named water bottle with water in it. Children are able to access their bottles throughout the day and so to protect teeth and to stop sticky spills, we ask that bottles contain water only.

 In Year 1 our PE sessions are Mondays and Thursdays. Please send children to school in their PE kit which consists of:

  • plain white T-shirt
  • plain black or navy shorts
  • plain black or navy leggings
  • plain black or navy hoodie
  • trainers* 

*Some PE sessions may require children to take part in bare feet.

 Children will be able to go to the toilet whenever the need to, however as the year progresses, we will encourage children to use the toilet at lunch and break times and during times when they are not working directly with a teacher.

Communication

  • We will use Dojo as a way of keeping you up to date with day to day information.
  • The school website will be used to share curriculum information.
  • A copy of all class letters can be found in each class page.
  • Please do use Dojo as and when you need to. We aim to check and respond to Dojo messages, where possible, between 8am-6pm Monday- Friday.
  • We operate an open door policy and are always happy to meet with parents to discuss any issues you may have.

Please ring the school office and do not Dojo this information in the first instance if your child is going to be off school sick before 8.50am.

We can administer medicine to children that has been prescribed by a doctor but only if a medication form has been completed. These forms are available from the office.
