Dear Parents/Guardians

We hope you had an enjoyable break and are refreshed for the half term ahead. We have an action packed term planned, with our trip to Hampton Court Palace, the Tudor visit and Divali Day. We are looking forward to an exciting and fun filled half term.

We would like to remind you that the children are given a Numeracy and Literacy homework task every Wednesday, occasionally homework may be given on a different subject related to the current topic. Homework is due in the following Monday. Unfortunately, last half term not all children were handing their homework in on time. Deadlines for homework need to be adhered to in order for us to mark it and give children feedback. If this is not the case we will be sending letters home. Homework diaries must be in school daily, so that any necessary communication can be made between us. We expect children to complete their homework to the same standard as they complete their work in school – always to try their best. We would also like to remind you that the school doors open at 8.40pm, children can come into class at this time to complete their homework and we will be there to help them if they have any difficulties.

In addition, as you are already aware, we are encouraging independence in the children. Please say goodbye to your child on the playground. Adults should not be coming into classrooms before school. This time is for teachers to help the children settle into the routine for the day. If you need to see your child’s teacher please send in a note, or make an appointment at the office.

We would like to take this opportunity to congratulate the children on the fantastic start they have made to Year 4. We would also like to say thank you for all of your support. We are looking forward to another successful half term.

Yours sincerely



Miss Cleveley Ms Norman Mrs Fry
