Chestnut Class

Teachers: Mrs E Dennis-Launder and Mrs G Smith-Little

In Spring half term, our main topic will be Wonderful Wildlife. Within the curriculum this half term we will also be studying Animals including Humans in Science, Judaism in RE and Digital Painting in Computing.

Homework will be handed out every Friday and should be completed and returned by Wednesday. Homework tasks are designed to reinforce what we have been learning in class and provide additional practice.

PE will take place on Monday and Friday. The lessons will focus on Dance and ball skills. Please ensure your child comes to school with a complete PE kit, a plain tracksuit for colder days and appropriate footwear. Earrings should always be removed on PE days.

Regular reading at home is vital to your child’s progress. Please encourage children to read every day and record this in their reading record. We check reading records weekly every Monday, and any support you provide at home makes a significant difference.

An update on pupil progress will be provided through parent consultations the week beginning the 10th February.
