This week!

Hi all,

This week we actually have a rather normal week! We are going to be continuing with the theme of Eco and some of the things we can do to help our planet. Sports morning is next Tuesday for reception - more information will follow regarding logistics - so we will be finalising our preparations for this! The children have shown quite a competitive edge in the lessons we have had so far! 

In phonics this week we are going to begin to touch on some of the alternate spellings of sounds. These will be covered much more in-depth in year 1 but the children appear to be ready for a brief introduction before the end of the year! The new spellings are 'ay', 'ou' and 'ea'. 

We will hopefully be having an invention conference on Friday to showcase some of the things the children have been making. There are some super ideas so please stand by for some pictures. We're also going to be doing a bit of evaluating with our inventions; thinking about what went well and what we would change if we were to do it again. 

Finally, I hope you all received a letter on Friday about Honeybrook Farm lunches - if not please come and speak to us tomorrow. Just to restate that if you do intend to bring in a packed lunch for your child please could you cancel your normal meal at the office tomorrow. Thank you! I know it seems to be a lot of fuss.
