This week in nursery we have been very busy learning with our friends! In the maths area we have been building towers and counting the number of blocks used, practising our pencil control in the writing area, using our cutting skills at the ‘catch up station’ and making faces out of playdough in the malleable area. The sun has been shining while we have explored the outdoor area, we have been climbing on the climbing frame, riding the bikes and playing musical instruments! We can’t wait for next week when we will begin our ‘Goldilocks and the three bears’ themed activities!

This week, Year 3 have been reading a story called Once Upon an Ordinary School Day. In our writing lessons, we have been focusing on a special character called Mr Gee and children used their knowledge of expanded noun phrases to describe what he looked like. We can't wait to see their finished character descriptions!

Dear Parents/Carers

Since we returned to school in September we are using a new management information system called Arbor.

The school will now the Arbor parent portal to send messages to parents, as well as letters and other school information.  Parents will now use the Arbor parent portal app to pay for dinners, milk, snack, uniform, trips and events.  Parents will also be able tp sign up for clubs and actitives in school, as parentmail and My ed will no longer be used by the school. 

Arbor is a simple, smart and cloud-based MIS (Management Information System), which helps us work faster, smarter and more collaboratively as a school. The Arbor App and Parent Portal mean we can keep you informed about your child’s life at school in a much more accessible way.

Log into Arbor to see and update your child’s information, get live updates and make payments or bookings on the go!

The Parent Portal works on Google Chrome (computer or laptop) and you can download the Arbor App from the App Store or Google Play Store on your phone (Android 5.0; iOS 10.0 and upwards).
