First week
We’ve had a fabulous first week in Key Stage 1. There were a few nerves (from adults and children alike) but once we got back into the swing of things, it was all ok! Thank you for sending your children looking so smart in their uniform, following our uniform policy.
We have become familiar with our new classrooms, met the adults who work there, enjoyed the new playground area, started learning in new books and done Wake Up Shake Up (WUSU) and PE.
Swimming starts next week. 2C on Tuesday, 1A on Thursday and 1,2B on Friday.
Lunch menus
Here are the lunch menus until February 2023. Children will be asked to choose each morning, if they are having a school lunch. Have a look through together so they are familiar with the choices.
PE days – when to wear PE kit?
We are continuing to wearing PE kit on PE days. On the days your child has PE, they should come to school in their school uniform PE kit. (Track-suit bottoms instead of shorts would be good on colder days. Footwear : black/brown/grey/white flat shoes which are safe to run around in.)
Footwear on PE days could be children’s ‘school shoes’ which are often a plain ‘trainer’ style anyway, if you want to avoid having to buy 2 pairs of shoes.
Here is a link to our uniform policy.
- 1A (Miss Lowry) – Thursday (swimming) and Friday
- 1,2B (Mrs Latham) – Thursday and Friday (swimming)
- 2C (Miss Young) – Tuesday (swimming) and Friday
Swimming lessons will not take place in the first week. Children will need their swimming kit from week beginning 12 September.
Welcome back
Only a few days before we’re back together! We hope you have all had a great summer.
Have a look here at our school uniform and PE kit policy. We will have spare, clean items of uniform, including PE kit, for children to change into if they’re not wearing the items set out in this policy. It helps us feel part of our school community if everyone follows the same rules.
Footwear on PE days could be children’s ‘school shoes’ which are often a plain ‘trainer’ style anyway, if you want to avoid having to buy 2 pairs of shoes.
Children should also have a filled water bottle (only water please) and a sun hat and sun cream, if it’s a sunny day.
Children can wear PE kit on both PE and swimming days (if swimming is cancelled for any reason, we will do PE instead). The days that children should wear PE kit can been seen below :
- 1A (Miss Lowry) – Thursday (swimming) and Friday
- 1,2B (Mrs Latham) – Thursday and Friday (swimming)
- 2C (Miss Young) – Tuesday (swimming) and Friday
We’ll send more information about reading books next week.
September 2022 : Who works in my class?
Here are some posters showing you the adults in each class in Key Stage 1 (years 1 and 2).
School’s out for summer!
Thank you, children, for all your hard work, and thank you parents and carers, for all your support. Have a lovely summer and maybe have a go at this bingo game!
Beach Party
What a day! We’ve had a fantastic fun-filled day at our beach themed party. There were games, inflatables, dancing, bubbles, chalking and a water fight. There was not much sun, but we didn’t care, we had so much fun!
WUSU Crew 2022
Scholes in Bloom – winning design
A group of children went out to meet the Britain in Bloom judges today. The winning designer of the Scholes in Bloom competition was there and everyone admired the planted design in the flowerbed outside school. It looks fabulous!
Design Technology – perfect puppets
We have absolutely loved our design technology topic this half term. Sewing has turned into a new-found favourite past time for so many children! The finale of the topic was comparing and evaluating our designs to our finished products. I’m sure you are as impressed as we were with our puppets. The children can’t wait to bring them home to play with and show their families.
