This year, we are using a phonics scheme called Little Wandle. We will send home two books on a Friday - your child’s Little Wandle reading book and a library book that you can enjoy as a family. Please ensure that these are brought back into school on the Monday so that we can continue our phonics learning.
Little Wandle - Resources for Parents
Your child can also access the Little Wandle library online.
Please ask your child’s class teacher for their login information.
Please make sure your child has an appropriate PE kit (white t-shirt, black/dark blue shorts, pumps/trainers) in a bag that they can leave on their peg in the cloakroom until half term.
