General reminders:

Nativity

All children have now been told their parts for this years nativity and have recieved their lines (if they are speaking). Please practise these with the children at home. Children need to wear black tops with black leggings/trousers and their black school shoes for the Nativity (please bring these into school on the 13th and 16th of December). 

Children need to read their little wandle books at least 3 times a week. This will help them with their segmenting and blending. Children need to read 5 times to get a tick on the reading giants and work towards their bronze certificate. 

Please ensure you are bringing bookbags, water bottles and coats to school.

Earrings must be taken out for PE. 

Please make sure children are wearing correct uniform; including socks and it is labelled.

5 reads for the week must be recorded by the Friday of that week and in school on the Friday in order to be marked on the chart.
