PE Information

You will need to wear your full school uniform everyday apart from WEDNESDAY and  FRIDAY. On these days, you can wear your P.E. kit for the whole day as this is when you will do your P.E. lessons. Wednesday PE lessons will be outdoors and Friday will be in the hall.

Please ensure that you have a hat, suncream and a water bottle for the hot days and rain jacket for the not so sunny days, as you will still be outside!

For P.E, you will need to wear your house colour t-shirt, joggers or shorts, and suitable trainers. Remember to also tie your hair up if it is long and remove all jewellery.

Writing

In writing this term we will be using the following books to support the children in their learning:

Reading

As a No Outsiders school we will be reading some books that will be thought provoking and open up ideas about how we see people.

We will also be reading the rest of Beetle Boy and exploring books in the same genre as Impossible Creatures By Katherine Rundell. We look forward to sharing books recommended by children in each class.

No Outsiders

The No Outsider’s vision is for inclusive education, promoting community cohesion and preparing our children for life as global citizens. ‘No Outsiders’ aims to develop the ethos of the school into one where every member of the school community, as well as every visitor through our doors, feels welcome and able to be themselves without fear of discrimination.

As a school, we will be incorporating the No Outsiders lesson plans and book suggestions into our own PSHE lessons. Class teachers will deliver the programme throughout the year, using developmentally appropriate picture books. Through discussion and activities based upon the picture books, pupils will be encouraged to show respect and develop their understanding of diversity.

Here are the books that will be covered this term:
