Autumn Term 2

Welcome back to the second term. I just wanted to give a couple of updates to answer some parent questions.

Spellings: These will be given on a Monday both in paper form and as a 2Do on Purple Mash. The children will be tested on a Friday. The following week as part of their morning tasks, any spellings they got incorrect will be given as handwriting practice.
PE: This is still on a Thursday. However, due to the change in temperature, please make sure that your children are appropriately dressed for outdoor PE.
Cooking: This is on Monday 17th November. Please remember to send your child with an appropriate cooking pot to bring their cooking home.
Parents evening: This is on Tuesday 18th and Wednesday 19th November. If you have not already booked in, please give the office a call.
Stay and Learn: This will take place on Wednesday 26th November. However, please note a change of time from 9am to 2pm.

As always, if you have any questions, concerns etc please do not hesitate to get in touch.

Lynford Lakes

Last week, year 5 had a fantastic time at Lynford Lakes. We walked around the arboretum, learnt the latin names for the trees and found all sorts of nature. We then explored the lake itself and I think a highlight for the children was digging holes in the little beach area. The children were fantastic and their behaviour really reflected what we expect at RFS. Looking forward to the next trip.

Welcome Back!!!

Welcome back to the new school year. They have settled well into year 5. This year the children will be taught by Mrs Heffernan every day and Mrs Dives (HLTA) will be our assistant every day.

A few reminders:
