Weekly Update 16.9.22
Posted: Sep 16, 2022 by: Mrs Trotter (l.trotter) on: Maple Tree Class Blog
Hi,
Maple Tree Class continues to settle well into the Year 6 routines. The children have been focused this week on completing a range of assessments and showed a really mature attitude. In PE, I have been impressed with the children's developing skills in preparation for playing tag rugby (photos next week). It was lovely to award both whole class and individual merits for great teamwork which links back to our PSHE work last week which focused on collaboration. Well done Maple Tree Class!
We are looking forward to our trip to Eden Camp next Wednesday. Please see information below.
Y5/6 Eden Camp Trips - IMPORTANT
We would like to issue a few reminders in advance of our Y5 trip (Oak and Y5 Ash) on Tuesday and Y6 trip (Maple and Y6 Ash) on Wednesday to Eden Camp.
Children will need to meet on the KS2 playground at 8.15am. We will be departing from school no later than 8.30am to allow the necessary travel time. Children will need to wear their normal school uniform and must bring a waterproof jacket/coat.
Children will need to bring a packed lunch with them. We ask that packed lunches are fully disposable (no lunchboxes/Tupperware etc.) and in a carrier bag with your child’s name on. Please also include a disposable, plastic water bottle. Please note that packed lunches MUST NOT include nuts of any kind (including peanut butter and Nutella) as we have children in the group who have a potentially life-threatening allergy to this food.
Please do not send your child with a backpack – due to the nature of the visit it would be impractical for them to wear this all day.
We aim to return to school by 4pm. If there are delays, school will inform parents via text message. Please wait to collect your child on the KS2 playground – not by the top gates where the coach will stop. This is to ensure all children can disembark safely and return their school resources to the classrooms.
As we are returning later than the end of a normal school day, you will need to notify the office or your child’s class teacher if you wish for them to walk home alone, even if this is their normal arrangement.
We thank you for your support with this.
Have a great weekend.
Mrs Trotter
