#### Morning Routine

Children are welcome as soon as the classroom door is opened by a member of staff (at 8:30am) and they need to be in and settled into their learning by 8:35am.

#### Home Time Routine

We will stand at the classroom door and let them go when they see you in the playground. If you would like your child to begin their independence and walk home or meet you at the school gate, please let us know via Dojo or the school office so that we know that they are not expecting to meet someone in the playground.

#### Federation Common Curriculum

Our whole school curriculum is shaped by the White Horse Federation ENRICH Curriculum (Embed, Nourish, RICH).

#### Reading, Times Tables and Home Learning

Reading is such an important skill to learn and master, and one that is most enjoyable. Please try to read with your child regularly even if your child is a fluent reader and support him/her by asking questions to deepen their understanding of the texts. Times tables will need to be practised each day - the quicker that these facts are recalled, the easier it will be to solve tricky calculations as they move up towards Year 6. Home learning is given out on a sheet in red books at the start of each term.

#### PE

Just a friendly reminder about our PE kit expectations as you prepare for the new school year.

Please make sure your child has:

- A plain white T-shirt (a small/discrete logo is fine).
- Plain black shorts and/or black leggings/jogging bottoms for colder weather (again, a small logo is fine).
- Suitable trainers for PE (colour doesn’t matter).
- A plain black sweatshirt for cold weather outdoor PE. The school jumper/cardigan can also be worn, and a small logo is fine.

A couple of other important reminders:

- Hair bands must be provided from home – all long hair needs to be tied back for PE.
- No jewellery should be worn for PE. Earrings need to be removed or, where this is not possible, covered with tape.

PE kits are kept in school and taken home and the end of each term.

Thank you very much for your continued support as we help your child strive to reach their potential. Please don't hesitate to contact me via ClassDojo if you have any queries.

**Mr. Sedgwick**
