Useful things to remember:
- PE kits are to be worn to school on Wednesday. PE will be outdoors on Wednesday afternoons.
- From September Fernwood Site only will be swimming on Thursday morning. After the February half term, Balderton children will be having their turn swimming on Thursday mornings. Children will need to come in their swimming kit every Thursday morning with their P.E kit on top. Please remember this is a one piece costume for girls and tight/fitted trunks for boys. No jewellery is to be worn and long hair needs to be tied back.
- Remember to bring a water bottle into school each day.
- Times Table Rockstars – please practise these every week at home.
- Try to read a book and practise your spellings regularly at home too.(Spellings are 10 per half term of 61 Yr 3 statutory spellings)
