Newsletter – June Week 2
Dear Parents / Carers,
Thankfully the summer weather is finally here. Please can you make sure your child brings their water bottle, sunhat and sunscreen to school.
School times
From September, we will be lengthening each school day by 5 minutes. This is inline with the Government request of each school day being 6.5 hours. The reason behind this is to give all children the same learning time in school. As we are nearly at 6.5 hours a day, it will only mean a slight change for Friarswood.
So, from September the school day will be from 8:50am to 3:20pm for all year groups. We will open the doors from 8:40am.
If you have any concerns with this, please feel free to let me know.
Early Years Outdoor Area
The early years team have been busy renovating the outside area. The new outdoor learning area is amazing. We’ve been showing new parents around and they have been very impressed. A huge thank you to Mrs Williams, Mrs Rushton, Mrs Tagg and Miss Goodwin and Mac.
Years 5 and 6
From Monday, we are asking that Years 5 and 6 are collected from the main entrance. If you would like for your child to walk to Abbots Way to you or home, please send a message on Dojo to either Mrs Sharman or Miss Coleman.
Swimming cancelled
The week beginning Mon 27th June, swimming has been cancelled due to new filters being fitted to the swimming pool.
