Class Dojo!
We are so sorry that we won't be seeing you for a while. We are now signed up to Class Dojo where we will be setting work after the Easter break (from Monday 20th April). Pupils will be able to post photos and share their work with us.
All parents should now have received log in details- please contact school if you have not received this.
Try to make time for some learning each weekday, but also spend time out in the fresh air, do some exercise, play games, get creative, try new recipes, help around the house, talk to friends and spend quality time with family. Perhaps you could learn a new skill and share this with us when we return!

Class Info:
Class Ash will be going swimming on Monday mornings for the first half of the Autumn term.
Our PE day is Tuesday and Forest School will be on alternate Thursdays (weather dependent).
Please ensure the correct kit is in school on these days so children can participate fully in the sessions.
Homework will be set on Fridays and should be handed in on the following Tuesdays. There will also be a number of projects given for children to complete and present related to our topics.
Children will also have spellings to learn and should continue to practise times tables facts.
Coppice Farm Reading Challenge: Reading regularly is so important for children's learning. Children are expected to read at least 4 times a week at home and record this in the diaries. There will be half termly reading rewards events for children who achieve 4 reads each week.
