• Frank Chapman Trip - Day 1

  Thu 11 May 2017

  Greetings from The Frank Chapman Centre

   

  Day 1: "Once we had arrived at the centre Chris (the man in charge) took us on a tour and showed us all the facilities. Once that was completed we unpacked. The pods are amazing!  

   

  Some of the girls have each outfit laid out ready to wear (tip from Mrs Reeves-Walters) whereas some of the boys have 'placed' their luggage so it is easily accessible (tip from Mr McDonnell). 

   

  After an afternoon of team building games and activities and we were joined by Mrs Stiles. Before our evening adventure we had some free time to play on the tree swing, play football with Mr McDonnell, cricket with Miss Bidnell or just relax in the sun! 

   

  Once Mrs Reeves-Walters arrived we ventured down into the forest for shelter building and treats around the camp fire. 

   

  With each group working as a team the shelters created were the best the centre had ever seen! 

   

  With the water heating up over the camp fire it was then time for hot chocolate and marshmallows - yum, yum! 

   

  With the sun setting we headed back for showers and to get ready for bed. Mrs Reeves-Walters, Miss Bidnell and Mr McDonnell checked in on all of us and stayed awake for ages making sure we were all ok. 

   

  Mrs Reeves-Walters has headed back to school to support year 6 with their SATs but is coming back after school.

   

  Well that's all for now - hope our friends in year 6 smash their last test - Good Luck! 

   

  See you all soon!"

• Parents Evening information

  Thu 30 Mar 2017

  Dear Parents

  Thank you for arranging an appointment time for next week’s parents evening. When you arrive, please collect your child’s tray (located outside your child’s classroom) this will contain their writing journey and maths books. Please then head to the hall until your child’s teacher is available; refreshments will be available while you wait.

  The main focus of the spring term parents evening is to share an interim report of where your child is at now and targets for the summer term. The interim report will include pupil attendance percentages for the school year so far, whether they are at, below or above age related expectations for this point of the school year, a summary of achievements in reading, writing and maths and targets for the summer term.

  However, we are aware that this evening will not allow us the time or opportunity for you to sample all your child’s many achievements. Therefore we will be holding open mornings/afternoons during the summer term for each year group. This will enable your child to share with you their successes from the wider curriculum subjects such as science, the arts, humanities, sports, RE, Spanish in Key stage 2 and the variety of topic studies that take place throughout our school.

  The children are keen to share and celebrate how they learn in our school and will invite you to join them in class for a ‘fly on the wall’ which will highlight their hard work and talents. A list of dates will be issued after the Easter holiday along with the summer term curriculum overview for each class.

  If your child is in a year group listed below, additional information will be given out due to statutory tests that take place in those year groups:

  Year 1 – Phonic Screening Check guidance

  Year 2 – SATs information, guidance and booklets

  Year 6 – SATs information, guidance and booklets

  In addition to your child’s interim report, if your child receives additional support in school, an update of their progress will be shared during your appointment.

  During both evenings, I and support staff will be available if any parent/carer would like to discuss further any aspect of their child’s progress or how we can support them to ensure they reach their full potential.

  Yours sincerely

   

  Mrs S Reeves-Walters

  Headteacher
