Welcome to our two Reception classes: Dragonflies with Miss Bowes and Fireflies with Mrs Swales. Mrs Mason and Mrs Grylls also support in Reception.
We are looking forward to welcoming all our children back to school. We will spend lots of time helping you to settle back in to class and get ready to do your best learning again. So, our school day and our curriculum will look a little bit different from usual.
We have sent a letter home from your class teacher to welcome you back and give you all the information you need to succeed. Just bring your smiles, your enthusiasm and your kindness and you’ll be fine!
Dragonflies Times: 9:10am – 3:10pm; please enter by the gate via school walk and line up in front of Door 1 on the main yard.
Fireflies Times: 9:10am – 3:10pm; please enter by the gate via school walk and line up in front of the door that leads into Fireflies classroom.
