Reminders
This is how you can help me at home…



.
On Fridays I will be a piece of homework.
Please help me complete it and ensure my
book is in my book bag on Mondays.
.
Please listen to me read EVERYDAY and help
me learn my high frequency words so I can
recognise these on sight. Please make a note
in my reading record book.
Please ask me what I have been doing at
school and if I can’t remember feel free to
pop into the classroom to have a look.

PE kit – I must have my PE kit in school everyday.
These can be taken home at the end of each half
term to be washed. PE is on a Wednesday and
Fridays.

Snacks – I do not need to bring a snack to school
as I am provided with one everyday. If I want
milk I need to register with CoolMilk.

Book Bag – I must remember to use a Book Bag
to bring my reading book and reading record
into school each day- please make sure these are
checked regularly for letters etc from school.

On Mondays it is ‘show and tell’ and I can bring
something interesting to talk about at school.
(We discourage the same plastic toys week after week and
encourage home made craft items, photographs and
tickets/leaflets from weekend visits etc!)

I can bring a pair of wellies to leave at school so
that I can play outside in all weathers. These can
be taken home at weekends if preferred.

I will need appropriate clothing for the weather.
It would be useful to have a rain coat if it’s
raining and a warm coat (and hat and gloves) if
it’s cold because I will be going outside whatever
the weather. If it’s sunny I will need a sun hat
and suncream.

If I have a toilet accident at school I will use
school spares – please wash and return any
items to school ASAP.
