Dear families,  

I am writing to inform you that children in Year 3 will be starting swimming lessons as part of their PE curriculum on Tuesday 19th February 2024. Pupils will attend school as normal on Tuesdays and will travel, supervised by school staff, via coach to the Ponds Forge Leisure Centre each week. The swimming sessions will run for 17 weeks until Tuesday 9th July 2024 and will be taught by qualified swimming instructors. The sessions are fully funded by school, and as they are part of the curriculum, all children are expected to participate.  

For each lesson your child will need to come to school dressed in their swimwear (underneath their school uniform). 

They will also need to bring the following: 

• A towel 

• A waterproof bag 

• A change of underwear 

Please ensure you follow the guidance below:

📚📚 Book Blanket 📚📚

Year three, have been loving our reading for pleasure activities. A precious time where children get to explore books and enjoy their love of reading. Last week, we used a book blanket to help us explore the wonderful books in our class. A book blanket is a large spread of books placed all around an inviting reading space. Such as our classrooms. What books do you enjoy reading?

Shape Sorting

This week Y2 were sorting 2D and 3D shapes into different groups! We sorted them into groups depending on the number of: faces, vertices, sides and many more!

Y4 have continued exploring Arabian Tales this week and have enjoyed the story of Aladdin in reading. We used drama to explore the true meaning of verbs used in this text and what we can infer from them. What a fun-filled and informative lesson!

Goldilocks & the 3 bears

Our 2 year olds have been reading the story ‘Goldilocks and the three bears’. They have enjoyed making bowls of porridge for the bears in the tuff tray.
