Reading
Reading Reward Reception to Year 6
Each half-term the children can earn reading rewards for reading at home or in our free reading school clubs. In school reading clubs are worth 3 reads each and can be booked via Arbor with the other clubs. There is a reading club on a Wednesday lunchtime too for those who cannot stay after school.
Reading reward levels:
Bronze - 18 reads
Silver - 24 reads
Gold - 36 reads
We would love it if reads could be uploaded to Seesaw or Tapestry ideally as a video so we can hear your reading and get immersed in the book too. If you have any difficulties with this please see a member of your child's teaching team.

Up and Coming Events
Some of our planned events are shown below. Check diary dates for all up and coming dates.
Clothing Donation and Clothes Swap
As we will now all be digging out our winter wardrobes it is a great time to get rid of any that we may have out grown. If your child has any coats, hats, gloves, scarfs or wellies that no longer fit please consider donating them to school. We shall arrange a week where we will put them all out and people can come and take any that would fit their child.
There will also be a Christmas jumper swap in the next few weeks so if your child has a Christmas jumper or outfit they have grown out of then please keep hold of it and they may be able to swap it with a friend.
Christmas jumper swap date: Monday 8th feel free to bring a Christmas jumper that is too small or you no longer want and see if you can swap with someone else - all jumpers must be in good condition please.
