Cooking & GardeningWe are proud to offer all pupils the opportunity to take part in cooking sessions during the school day. These sessions take place in the School House kitchen and are led by the class teacher. Fresh ingredients from our school garden are used wherever possible, helping children learn about food, nutrition, and sustainability. To support this programme, we ask for a voluntary annual contribution of £13.00, which covers the cost of additional ingredients for the full school year (September 2025 – July 2026).
Your support helps us continue offering this valuable hands-on learning experience. Thank you! |
Healthy SnacksTo help keep energy levels up and minds focused, we encourage pupils to bring a healthy snack for break time. Great options include:
Please do not send sweets, chocolate, crisps, or fizzy drinks. Let’s work together to support healthy habits and happy learning! |
| Reading |
Reading and/or talking about their reading to an adult for at least 20 minutes, 5 times a week. Complete your child’s reading record each time they read. Remember it doesn’t always have to be their school book. Reading records and reading books should be sent to school daily. |
| Mathematics | Every child in Year 4 must play Timestable Rockstars for at least 5 minutes every day. This is essential for their quick recall of multiplication and division facts, reducing the cognitive load when answer problem solving and reasoning questions. |
