Welcome back to the summer term. We hope you have all had a lovely Easter break.
A very warm welcome to our two new starters and their families, we are looking forward to getting to know you.
We have an exciting summer term ahead. During the first couple of weeks we will be observing closely the season of spring and looking for Bog Babies! After that we will begin a very exciting and fun topic all about our big wide world.
Below you will find useful information for both Seedlings and Saplings. If you need help with anything further please do not hesitate to ask a member of our EYFS team.
Mrs Nicholson, Mrs MacKay, Mrs Severs, Mrs Wardle.
Arrival and collection points for Seedlings will be the main entrance to the unit located opposite the main school reception.
Saplings will arrive at the main entrance and be collected at the classroom door leading onto the main playground.
Children should be collected by someone over the age of 16. If someone different is collecting your child, please let their class teacher know.
At the end of the school day, any children who aren't collected after ten minutes will be popped into After School Club which is located in the portacabin.

Please clearly label all items of your child's uniform.
Please ensure that your child has a small water bottle in school daily. This should only have water in it, not juice please.
PE day for both Seedlings and Saplings is a Tuesday. On this day, children in Seedlings can come to school wearing their PE pumps or trainers.
PE day for Saplings - this summer term we will continue to encourage the reception children to change into their PE kit so please ensure they have a fully labelled PE kit in school and in a named PE bag. This can remain on their peg and in school until the next half term holiday when we will send them home to be washed.
Seedlings will come home each week with a story bag and these are changed on a Friday.
Saplings sharing books will be changed each Wednesday and reading books changed on a Friday.
