Autumn 2

Welcome back! We hope you have had a lovely half term and your children are excited to return to school to see what's in store for them this half term! For our first week back, we will be learning all about Diwali and how this is celebrated across the world. We have lots of arts and crafts that the childen will be keen to get 'stuck' into. Bonfire Night will also see lots of opportunities for creativity, where the children will enjoy creating some fantastic ' firework' patterns using a variety of mixed media.

Over the rest of the half term, we will be very busy looking at 'People who help us'. We will be lucky enough to have our own community support officer, Wendy, coming in to talk to us about what the police do, as well as having a look inside a police car! Our learning environment will have allsorts of fun-filled activities where we can pretend to be cops and robbers, as well as having look inside a sack to count how many items Burglar Bill has stolen!

Your child can now log on to  Bug Club and Mathletics to access online reading books and maths activities at home too.  

• Please make sure that all of your childs' things are named. This includes: lunch boxes, water bottles and PE bags as well as uniform and coats.
• Oak & Elm will have PE on a Thursday. Please make sure PE kits are in every week - they should be left in school during term time and will be sent home every half term for washing. Encourage the children to get themselves changed each morning and this will help them with the skills required in school.  
• Homework will be given out on Fridays and is due to be handed back in on a Tuesday.
• School meals are provided free of charge. Please remember to discuss meal options with your child before school so that they know what they are having for lunch.
• There is the opportunity for the children to have milk at snack time.  Please book your child in at www.coolmilk.com  

Take a look at how well our wonderful Reception children have already settled in...
