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.

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: tide & safety

Squirrels: germination & perrenial

Woodpeckers: hydrated & dehydrated

Foxes:  eastings & northings
