Ash Class Rec/Y1
We are delighted to welcome you to Ash Class, a mixed-age class of EYFS and Year One.
Our curriculum is built around four guiding principles:
- Every child is unique
- Positive relationships help children feel secure and confident.
- Enabling environments encourage exploration and learning.
- Learning and development are achieved through a balance of play and adult-led activities.
We work closely with families to ensure that each child's needs are met, providing opportunities for your child to grow, achieve, and thrive.
Key Information
PE Days
PE days are on Wednesday. On these days, children are to come in wearing a PE kit.
Children should have with them
- A labelled water bottle
- A reading book
- Appropriate shoes- preferably no laces
- Waterproofs and Wellies kept in school
- Coats
Please note: all clothes (including coats and shoes) should be labelled should they need returning to them.
Reading Books
We change reading books on Wednesday. Please note that we need to have books returned before we exchange them. Unfortunately, we have to charge £5 for any damaged or lost books.
The children have a separate wallet to keep their reading scheme books in to keep them extra safe.
Communications
At Oake, Bradford and Nynehead Primary School, we use ClassDojo to communicate with parents - sharing any exciting news and update the Class Story regularly. Parents can also contact teachers through ClassDojo if there are any queries or questions you may have! You can access ClassDojo (login required) through this link: https://www.classdojo.com/
If your child if being collected by someone else please mention this in the morning and if it is a last minute change please phone the office as I am unable to pick up Dojo messages during the day.
Homework
Children are expected to read at home for 5- 10 minutes every day. There are extra phonic sheets on our page that consolidate each weeks learning.
