Dear Parents/ Carers,
 Welcome back, I hope you and the children have enjoyed the Christmas break.

• Our topic this half term is Mountains and Rivers, while in science, we will be looking at Space and the Solar System.
• Swimming is on Tuesday this half term. Can children please come in school uniform and bring their full swimming kit including a swimming cap or they will not be allowed to swim.
• PE will is on Monday, so children will need full school PE kit; School jumper/hoody, school/white t-shirt and black shorts/tracksuit bottoms or leggings.
• Please encourage your child to read at home and as much as possible, engage with the Bug Club and Sora apps they have access to. If you have any questions, please ask or email using our class email address.

Home learning tasks such as weekly spellings, times-tables and other activities can be found on each child's Home Learning Page. To access this your children will need to login to the school website every school day. Children can access allocated reading books through Bug Club via https://www.activelearnprimary.co.uk/login?c=0 

All children also have home access to SORA online library, IDL Maths and IDL English which can be found at https://appuk.idlsgroup.com/#/login

If children do not know their login details or are having difficulty accessing any of the sites, please contact me using the email below.
