Hello everyone!
We have had a lovely first 2 days in Early Years, getting to know all of the children and having fun together. The children have also enjoyed their first PE session today.
It was lovely to meet so many of you earlier this week for our parent/teacher meetings, if you did not manage to come to one of these, then please do ask and we can always see you one day after school. Thank you for all of the waterproofs, wellies and completed packs that have already come in. Please feel free to send any outstanding ones in next week.
We are excited for our first full week with the children, so on to our learning for this coming week, we will be:
- Sharing the story "Starting School" and thinking about all the things that we have done in our new classes.
- Finding out about different areas around school - exploring the ladybird garden, field and adventure playground.
- Drawing pictures of ourselves for our classroom display.
- Talking about how we can work together to make our classes a happy place to work and play. (RRS Article 31)
- Taking class photos for the Echo New Starters supplement. If you do not want your child in this photograph please let us know.
- Enjoying our first Celebration Assembly on Friday.
Please remember we are only ever an email away, there is no such thing as a silly question and we will always do our best to answer any queries. Please use the email address earlyyears@downhallprimary.com.
We know it says in the newsletter this week that parents should be leaving their children at the main gates, this is for children in Years 1 to 6. Please be reassured that it is fine for you to walk on to site and walk your child/children round to our Early Years gate.
We hope you all have a lovely weekend.
Miss Wakefield, Mrs O'Connor and Miss Langley
