Welcome Back
Welcome back, we hope you all had a lovely summer break. It has
been a great start to the new term, children look especially smart in
their uniforms and we would like to thank parents and carers for
their support.
You will have noticed that staff are now wearing Hi-Viz jackets in
the morning so they are easily identifiable. Senior Leaders (Mr
Tipler, Miss Lewis, Mr Grant-Roberts, Mrs Farmer and Miss

My Child’s Learning Meeting
This year, we are introducing My Child’s Learning Meetings. These meetings will provide an
opportunity for teachers to share what your child will be learning each half term.
As well as informing you about your child’s learning, My Child’s Learning Meetings will give you
the opportunity to meet your child’s new class teacher, hear about the class routines and
expectations for reading and homework, and about ways you can support your child’s learning at
home.
The first My Child’s Learning Meetings will take place in your child’s classroom next week as
follows. Each class will run the meeting twice to enable as many parents as possible to attend.
Monday 9 September 4.30pm – 5.15pm Year 1 and Year 2
Tuesday 10 September 4.30pm – 5.15pm Year 1 and Year 2
Wednesday 11 September 4.30pm – 5.15pm Year 3, Year 4, Year 5, Year 6
Thursday 12 September 4.30pm – 5.15pm Year 3, Year 4, Year 5, Year 6
Please come along to whichever meeting time suits you. It would be great if your child could
attend too so that they can show you their new books and routines and introduce you to their
new teacher.
