Infant - Weekly Email - Friday 8th December

Dear Parent/Carer,

 
We have had such a busy week. The children enjoyed having a Christmas lunch on Wednesday as well as going to the Junior School for Jack and the Beanstalk. Thank you to those parents who have already contributed, contributions are still being accepted on ParentMail if you are yet to pay for the pantomime.
Year 2 children enjoyed their Great Fire of London workshop today which helps consolidate all of their learning this term. Thank you for all your donations to allow this to take place. 
Year 1 visited the Milestones Museum where they had a fantastic time learning all about toys from the past and comparing them with the toys of today. Thank you to all the parents who helped with the trip.  
 
Reading Advent Calendar 
We have been opening the doors of our reading advent calendar in school.  Here is the link so you can join in and share with your child(ren) at home:

Christmas Post Box 
The post box is now available in Reception for the children to post cards to their friends. Please ensure that the child's full name and class is written on the envelope to help the elves deliver them! Please ensure that sweets and chocolate are NOT put into envelopes or brought into school.

Tickets are not being issued for Reception's productions. Everyone who has requested tickets have been allocated their choices.
