A huge welcome to the new Year 3 children who have effectively used this half week to settle into school routines. With the academic pressure off, the focus has been on getting organised, knowing the school site, getting to know the school systems and rules and learning how to ensure they are safe and happy in school.
It has been a joy to meet them and I have had a couple of specific talks with Year 3 at the end of the assembly and in their classes. They are already getting used to expectations in Key Stage 2 (juniors) and most have been keen to take on more responsibility and be accountable for their choices.
Their positivity and energy is a good sign and they are running into school now, keen to start each day.
This week it was lovely to meet lots of parents/carers from Year 3 at their welcome meeting on Thursday 5th September 2024. Next week we are looking forward to welcoming lots of Year 4, 5 and 6 parents/carers into school. The welcome meeting dates and times are as follows:-
- Year 4 - Friday 13th September 2024 3.40pm
- Year 5 - Wednesday 11th September 2024 3.40pm
- Year 6 - Thursday 12th September 2024 3.40pm
