This term seems to be flying past and we will soon be at the end of the summer term.  This week, the children in Y1, Y3, Y4 and Y5 have been completing their assessments that aid our teacher assessments so that we can complete the end-of-year reports.  The end-of-year reports are due out on the 14th of July 2022, you should receive these by email, so please ensure that your email is up-to-date with the office.

Next Wednesday sees the start of our transition days.  This is the day your child will find out who their teacher next year will be and begin to do some work so that all our pupils are ready for next year.  If your child is in Y6 and going to Ridgeway, they will attend Ridgeway next Thursday and Friday.  They do not come into school but go directly to Ridgeway as if they have started there in September.  If your child is attending a different secondary school, we have not heard when they are thinking about transition.  

Next week also sees our Y1 pupils performing their class assembly on Wednesday.  This starts at 14:45 and parents are more than welcome to come into school and see the class perform.  We do allow photos and videos as long as these are not on social media unless you have zoomed in on your own child and do not have any other pupil in the photo.

We are building up to our summer fair, so thank you if you have donated things for our raffle.  There will be a BBQ, music and some fun things to do whilst you are on site.  The summer fair is scheduled for Friday 8th July and this will lead into our annual camp out on the school field - more details to follow next week.

Attendance

The winning class with 99.37% is Year 5.  Well done for being in school and achieving a high percentage.

Doodle Maths

If you have not linked to your child's Doodle Maths account, please do so.  This will help you track what your child is learning, help with homework, ask for help from the Doodle team if required and make sure that your child is completing their homework through email updates.

Our aim at the school is to make sure that children are always in the green zone.   This means little but often.  We are not worried about stars as we want our pupils to enjoy maths and grow in confidence.  

We celebrate the top doodling class each week and this week's winners with 100% of pupils in the green zone, is Year 5.  Well done to all the children in Year 5 for doodling every day.

I hope you have a lovely weekend.
