Hello to everyone in Sycamore Class,

                                                    Welcome to all of the new Sycamore class pupils and their families. I can’t wait for us all to be together in class, learning and working together! We are so lucky to be joined by Mrs Kinder who will be helping us with every area of school life and also a huge welcome to Mrs Pilkington who will be teaching you French and Music on a Wednesday as well as Maths and English. I have attached the topic overview for this half term, so you can see what we will be learning and also the homework expectations for the term. You will also find lots of other information included… but dont forget that Class Dojo is your first port of call for any news and changes I need to let you know. Enjoy the rest of your summer and Ill see you in September!

P.E.

 

This half term we will be focusing on Games and Dance. This will mean we are both inside and outside, so appropriate footwear must be worn.

Trainers for outdoor use and pumps or trampoline style socks for indoors. 

We will also be completing our weekly runs out on the track so please ensure your trainers are always in school.

Our PE day will be on Tuesdays and on this day children will come to school wearing their PE Kit – this will consist of shorts, t-shirt, leggings/jogging pants (if chosen), their school sweatshirt/cardigan or the new sweatshirt and their school shoes. they can swap into theor traines once they get to school.

Working Online 

Remember that if you are completing any searches online to use ‘children’, ‘child’ or ‘kids’ in your search to ensure any adult or unsuitable content is filtered out.

Don’t forget…
Always remember what KS says: If you have ‘yukky feelings’, then Say NO, Walk Away and Tell a Trusted Adult. The same rules apply online as in real life. Ask an adult if you are unsure about ANYTHING online. Make good, sensible choices and ask for help if something goes wrong.

We would always urge parents to carefully monitor what their child is accessing online. All links and videos provided are checked by staff to ensure their suitability, however links and suggestions will not have been. Please ensure your child is safe when accessing online material.
