Hi all and welcome to the 2024 school year.

 

Every week your child's class will be participating in an hour long P.E. lesson.  Can you please ensure they bring the following on their P.E. day:

  • a hat
  • a drink bottle
  • sports uniform
  • sports shoes

The Year 6s will also need to bring their sports gear on a Friday as they will be participating in school sports.

 

Classes have been provided with sports equipment such as footballs, netballs, basketballs, skipping ropes etc to be used during playtimes.  They are also allowed to bring their own from home, but make sure their names are written on in permanent marker.  And tell them to keep their treasured ball away from the buildings - we found over 100 balls up there last year!
