Welcome to Duckling Class Page! We will post useful information here, such as project letters and links to learning resources. We will also share some of our great learning with you!
PE
For Term 1, Ducklings will have PE with Mrs Smith on a Wednesday afternoon. (We will swap PE days with Hedgehogs each half term, so that the children are also taught by Mr Rouse.) From week 2 onwards, please can your child come to school in their PE kit every Wednesday. They can wear a pair of navy jogging bottoms instead of shorts, if you prefer. They will need to wear dark coloured trainers and their school jumper with their PE kit, and keep a pair of daps in their PE bag in the cloakroom.
Phonics Information Session for Parents
We will be holding a Phonics Information Session for parents later in the term, when we will tell you all about how we teach phonics at St John's and how you can help to support your child at home. Below are some useful information sheets for you to use at home.
