Welcome Back to Spring 2 - Year


Hi everyone,

We hope you have all had a lovely half term break. We are looking forward to welcoming the children back to school on Tuesday, as tomorrow is an INSET day.

Forest School

Forest School will now take place on Wednesday afternoons. Please ensure your child brings appropriate clothing in, this can be left in school, including:

A waterproof coat, wellies, suitable trousers and tops (that you don’t mind getting muddy!)

PE

PE will now be on a Friday afternoon. Please ensure PE kits are in school and clearly labelled.



🌟 World Book Day 🌟

This year’s theme is “Go All In”, which aims to inspire children to read by helping them make meaningful connections between books and their own hobbies, passions and interests.

Dressing Up

On World Book Day, children are invited to come to school dressed as:

  • Their favourite book character, or

  • A character linked to their interests (for example, a sports figure from a book, a scientist, musician, etc.).

Please be reassured that costumes are expected to be simple, comfortable and accessible, with no expectation of spending money. Creative, homemade or everyday clothing is absolutely encouraged.

Book Swap

We will also be holding a book swap on World Book Day. Children may bring in one or two good-quality books that they no longer read and exchange them for another book.

This is a lovely way to refresh home bookshelves and share a love of reading. These can be brought in any time before World Book Day or on the day itself.

Mystery Readers

We are also inviting Mystery Readers to join us! If you would like to take part, you will need to:

  • Choose a book of your choice

  • Come into school at 3:10pm to read to the class

Places will be offered on a first come, first served basis, and we only have space for five readers, so please email Miss White as soon as possible if you would like to volunteer.

We are excited for a busy and fun-filled half term ahead! 😊

Miss White, Mrs Bernard and Mrs Thomas
