Welcome to Perseverance Class
In this class, we’ll discover how perseverance helps us reach our goals, build confidence, and feel proud of ourselves for not giving up. So get ready to challenge yourself, work together, and have fun as we learn how to keep going — no matter what!
P.E. Days: Our P.E lessons are on Wednesday and Friday. Please ensure that children come into school wearing their P.E. kit. This consists of a navy PE t-shirt, jumper, shorts and jogging bottoms. Trainers of any colour can be worn on PE days. These logo items can be purchased from Karlsports in Kettering.
Reading Book Change Day: Children are encouraged to read daily, and they can change their own books in our library. We ask that parents record when they have heard their child read in the child’s reading record book. Children are also asked to record when they have read independently but this must be signed off by an adult. Their reading records will be checked on Thursday.
Spellings: Spelling lists are sent home on Mondays, and the children are tested on Friday.
Support Learning at home: EdShed spelling and Times Table practice - ‘TTRockstars’. Information on how to access these will be sent home with your child’s username and login details.
Our Walk-in Weekday takes place each term. We look forward to welcoming you into class to share different aspects of the children’s learning.
Snacks / Drinks: Children are allowed to bring in their own morning healthy snack (no chocolate, crisps or nuts) We also encouraged children to bring a labelled bottle of water to drink during the day. We kindly ask that no fizzy drinks are brought into school.
School Trip: The children will explore ancient treasures from the Roman City of Verulamium. They will find out what life was like for different members of Roman Society and experience original Roman ruins. The trip is to Verulamium Museum.
Communication ~ Let’s stay connected
There are several ways that school will communicate with you.
Emails are sent for our Weekly Bulletin, Termly Newsletters and Adhoc information.
Text Messages - Alerts (e.g. school trips) / key information.
