The children break up for the Christmas Holidays today Friday 22nd December and will return on Tuesday the 9th of January. The staff would like to say a massive thank you for all of your support this term and for helping your child in their first term of school. The children have made fantastic progress in their learning and are working hard on becoming independent.
The staff would like to say a huge thank you for all of the very generous gifts and cards that we have received. They are very unexpected but much appreciated. We are looking forward to the Spring term and working with your children for the rest of the year.
We will not be sending books home over the Christmas break but please continue to read to your child. The holidays are a great time to spend some time reading stories together or visiting the library for your child to choose some books of their own. We have added some links below to some games and activities to help practise some of the skills learned this term.

Please enjoy the Christmas break, try and remember that your presence is more valuable to the children than presents! Spend time chatting and playing with your child as this will be the most beneficial thing you can do to help them feel safe, happy and secure.
Have a healthy and safe Christmas
