Library

To access the reading cloud and order your favourite books into the library, click below:

Books are issued for two weeks at a time but can be returned earlier. If your child wishes to keep a book for longer than two weeks, please send it in to school and your child can place it in the library box with a post-it note so that it can be renewed.

You can check which books your child currently has on loan along with the return dates on Reading Cloud. Log-in details are in the front of your child's home-school diary. If a book has got lost, we ask for a £5 contribution towards replacing the book. Please speak to your child's class teacher.

PE

Children should come to school in their PE kits on a Monday and Wednesday. Children should wear the colour t-shirt of the planet group they're in with blue shorts and trainers. Plain blue, black, or grey tracksuit bottoms or leggings and a similar sweatshirt (no logos please) should be worn as the weather becomes colder. If you prefer, your child can wear their school jumper or cardigan.

COMPUTING

In computing this term we are using Scratch to plan a game and using animation to create a news report with character interviews and programming on monitoring devices.
