Term 3

Welcome to Term 3. We hope you have had a lovely Christmas break and a great start to 2026! We are looking forward to another fun-filled term with your children. This term our topic will be ‘People in our community’ and we will be introducing the children to a range of different occupations. We are looking forward to seeing what jobs inspire and interest your children. We will end the term with a celebration of their learning and a dress up day.

We will be available on the door at the beginning and end of the school day and can be contacted by email. Our contact details are below and can also be found on the school website, so please do get in contact if you need to at any point.

If you have any questions about any of this please do ask Cath Sands or your child's teacher and don't forget to read the newsletter below for lots of important information. 

Thanks.
