Copdock Weekly Update 12/12/2025
Information to ShareChristmas Performance Tickets - thank you for completing the surveys for the children's Christmas performances. Unless you have had an email to say otherwise the number of tickets you have asked for on the survey are confirmed. Siblings of toddler age and under will not require a ticket but will need to sit on a parents lap. There will be no hard copy tickets issued this year but your name and allocated number of tickets will be on a list when you enter the hall. If you have accessibility issues and require a seat near to the door or require a chair to sit on instead of a bench please email the office so this can be arranged. Please be aware that any photos or videos taken of your child at the performances MUST NOT be shared on any social media platforms. Please ensure phones are switched to silent and can we ask if younger siblings get restless during the performance they can be taken out of the hall for a short break to allow the children performing to concentrate on their performance. .Thank you for your cooperation.

REMINDERS!!!! Please ensure your child has a named coat or waterproof in school for break times - we do like to get outside even if it's a bit drizzly. Earrings must be removed for PE lessons. Please check the uniform policy to ensure the correct earrings are being worn. Please ensure anything brought into school is labelled. Look out for lost property on the lunchbox trolley each evening. Muddy Shoes - If your child has a spare change of shoes they can change into for playtimes this would help to keep our classrooms clean. Alternatively, plimsols for indoors and outdoor shoes for play. Thank you as always for your support. Art Tokens - tokens will be printed in the Ipswich star and East Anglian Daily Times. Simply cut out the tokens and drop them into the office for the school to have a chance of winning some art supplies. |

Every week we encourage parents to support their children to learn and use new vocabulary. In school we will be exploring the origin of new words, what they mean and how to use them effectively in context. If you can encourage your child to use these words it would be really helpful! Kittens: No Squirrels: Words Woodpeckers: This Foxes: Week Our Value this half term is 'Trust' If you would like to explore this theme at home, see our family leaflet here. |
