Welcome to class 9.

Welcome to the start of the new academic year and our new classroom. I hope your child will enjoy their time in class 9. To begin the term our focus will be on wellbeing, ensuring all our pupils are happy, settled and ready for learning and continuing to make progress.

Our topic for this term shall be "Who am I?"

Class Information.

• PE for this half term will be carried outside as long as the weather is dry. There is no need to provide a PE kit for your child. However, they may wish to wear trainers and leggings/ joggers on a Monday.
• We shall be continuing to read daily in class and we will be carrying out assessments in September. Reading books will be sent home this term, in a few weeks. Home reading support will also be provided using our online system- https://www.oxfordreadingbuddy.com/uk Log in details were sent home last year on their password passport but if you have any difficulties accessing the site please let me know. Please support your child with their reading by accessing this website.
• Hometasks will be set weekly on a Friday and will be set on our Google Classroom page. Our first homework will begin on Friday 17th September.
• Please ensure your child has a plastic water bottle in school every day, clearly marked with their name and filled from home and refills will be given throughout the school day. There is no need to bring any other resources to school.

If you have any questions at any time, please do not hesitate to phone the school office on 01656 815840, leave a message and I will return your call as soon as I can.

Many thanks for your continued support,

Mrs Penny.
