Class 3 - Miss Walsh

ST JOHN'S SCHOOL VALUES:

Love; Friendship; Kindness; Honesty; Forgiveness

Welcome to Class 3!

P.E. Days

Tuesday – Indoor P.E.
On Tuesday's, the children will take part in indoor P.E sessions. Indoor kits should be kept in school in a drawstring bag and include: a white t-shirt, black or navy shorts and plimsolls.

Thursday– Outdoor P.E.
This half term, the children will be doing outdoor P.E on a Thursday afternoon with Alan. Please ensure your child brings their full outdoor kit to school every Thursday. This should include: a white t-shirt, black or navy joggers and trainers. As the weather is getting cooler, we recommend also sending a plain navy sweatshirt or hoodie to keep children warm and comfortable outdoors.

For health and safety reasons, earrings should not be worn during P.E. lessons. We kindly ask that any earrings are removed on P.E. days - either before school or prior to the lesson. Please note that staff are unable to assist with the removal of jewellery. If earrings cannot be removed, we ask that plasters are provided so children can cover them during P.E. sessions.

Home Learning Expectations

In Class 3, we place a strong emphasis on reading. We encourage children to:

• Read aloud to an adult at least three times per week, though daily is recommended
• Spend time reading independently and reading for pleasure
• Explore a wide range of texts to foster a real love of reading

We try to encourage the children to broaden their horizons by engaging with new authors, tackling different genres and engaging with varied text types including novels, comics, diaries, newspapers and websites.
