Happy New Year

everyone and welcome back to a new term. A special welcome to the Nursery pupils who have begun school this term.
The Spring term is very short but we still have a lot of work to do! Teachers and pupils have been discussing targets to enable the children to improve their own standards and achievement. A positive working attitude to school life is so important if our children are going to achieve their potential. We aim to make learning challenging and enjoyable. Parents play a crucial role in the school life of the child by ensuring that homework is completed on time, being involved in the curriculum and ensuring that non attendance is only for illness as far as possible. May we remind parents that all children need to read daily at home and discuss the text with parents and with the updated Numeracy Framework all children should know their multiplication tables by the end of Y4! These need frequent practise and all the children from Y2 to Y6 have table books supplied for use at home.
All parents have the opportunity to discuss their child`s progress with teaching staff at the Parent Reporting sessions on Wednesday 14th and Thursday 15th February. Please sign the lists that will appear soon on the notice board in the corridor if you would like an appointment.
