Date: 18th Sep 2025 @ 12:32pm

Welcome Wolves,

Our learning behaviour is, 'work hard' and our value is, 'Thankfulness'.

Our words are: rotate and orbit

Here are some reminders for next week.

Reminders:

Please ensure all children's uniform is named and they have a drink bottle with them. In bad weather, please ensure they have the correct uniform including coats, a school fleece isn't sufficient to keep them dry so please send in a coat as well especially with the weather changing.

Monday - PE kits to be worn. All children will be taken to Copdock school shortly after they arrive. They will be taking part in forest school activities, PE, phonics, English, Maths, RE and music. Children will then be driven back to Bentley in time for pick up at 3:15

Tuesday - PE kits to be worn.

Friday -

As mentioned in our welcome back letter, Friday 26th September will be our Victorian Day, where we will travel back in time to explore school life in Victorian times. Children need to come dressed in simple costume, maybe even a chimney sweep or maid. Children will be lined on the playground in the morning to complete their hygiene check so make sure they wash their hands and nails thoroughly before coming to school!

As part of our Victorian Day theme, we will be holding a Victoria Sponge cake competition. Get your culinary skills ready as you might win a prize!

Donations of other cakes will also be welcome (please bring in to school on Thursday, or Friday morning) as all cakes will be used to support our Macmillan event which opens at 2.45pm. Entry charge is £2.50 for adults and 50p for all children in school, or those who join us. Payment is via spider please. Each class will perform as part of our event so sit back and enjoy refreshments whilst you are entertained. Thank you in advance for your support

Bentley School's Christian Ethos

"Know that I am with you always," Matthew 28:20 We encourage the spiritual, social, moral and cultural development of the school family by embedding Christian values into everyday life. Our vision is for all children to be confident individuals, successful learners and responsible citizens who are well equipped for future life, knowing that God is with them always.
