Children return to school
‘KS1 maths’ challenge’ This half term, years 1 and 2 will be involved with a maths challenge. The focus will be on times tables, with a rock star theme. Every day they will take part in an activity to help them practice the times tables. Homework will be provided with ideas for you to help your child learn. During the last week of half term pupils will take part in a competition and may achieve rock, rock superstar or rock legend status. We will also find our ultimate rock hero. I am sure that the children will enjoy the challenge Thank you for your support Emma Whitehouse (MCPA maths coordinator)
Lateness - Parent Reminder School starts at 8:50am for Rec, Year 1 and Year 2 School starts at 9:00am for Nursery Lateness is being monitored closely as children are missing out vital lesson time by being late. Arriving 5 minutes late every day adds up to over 3 days lost each year Arriving 15 minutes late every day is the same as being absent for 2 weeks a year. Arriving 30 minutes late every day is the same as being absent for 19 days a year. Sue Farrimond
