IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Daily Items

Home-school books, reading books and reading records should be brought into school every day. It is also encouraged that your child brings their own bottle of water each day as well as a waterproof coat due to the changing weather.

We recommend that all children bring a water bottle into school daily. This must contain fresh water only. For hygiene reasons, they must be taken home, washed and refilled daily. They must be clearly labelled. Children can refill them during the school day too. Anything other than water will not be allowed to be consumed by your child during the school day unless you can provide written medical evidence from your GP explaining why this cannot be so. On receiving this, you will then need to fill in a Medical Health Care plan. See section 4. • If your child has a packed lunch, a second drink should be included. However, no fizzy drinks are allowed to be brought into school. Children having school lunches will be provided with water.

PE Kit

Pupils are asked to come to school in PE kit with no logos. Please remember to remove any jewellery.  

PE Days:

5CB - Monday and Thursday

5JD - Tuesday and Thursday

5TF - Thursday and Friday


 

Habits of Mind

Across the academy, we encourage children to develop six Habits of Mind that help them become confident, resilient and independent learners:

Striving for Accuracy – taking care and checking our work.

Persisting – keeping going when things are challenging.

Questioning and Problem Posing – being curious and asking thoughtful questions.

Thinking and Communicating Clearly and Precisely – explaining our ideas clearly.

Thinking Interdependently – listening, sharing ideas and working well with others.

Thinking Flexibly – being open to new ideas and different ways of thinking.

These habits help our children approach learning with curiosity, confidence and resilience.
