FROGGY STARS - STRIVE -TEAM - AMBITION - RESILIENCE = SUCCESS
Week – 9/9/22
What an exciting first week back!
Thank you for your support in helping your children settle back into school. It’s been great to see the way they have adjusted to their new classes, tackling new challenges with enthusiasm, determination and resilience.
To ensure that your child is able to participate fully and gain the most from school, we need them to arrive promptly, doors open at 8:40am. Key Stage 2 children (Y3-6) will be collected from the playground at 8 40. Children arriving after this time should make their own way into school. There will be chance to speak to class teachers at the end of the school day or by making an appointment through the school office.
Please ensure you have downloaded the My Child at School App. This will enable you to select your child’s lunch, check attendance and book on after school clubs. Important updates are also sent through the app. Please see the office if you need support in accessing the app. Our website also contains important information such as our newsletters and upcoming events. These are also displayed on our school calendar. (www.floweryfieldschool.org.uk/calendar). Reminders will be provided through the My Child at School App.
Our assemblies this week have reinforced our expectations around school. We have focused on what it means to be part of Flowery Field and relaunched our Froggy Stars! These focus on the key learning behaviours we wish to promote at Flowery (STRIVE, TEAMWORK , AMBITION and RESILIENCE) to ensure all can achieve success. We will continue to have celebration events each half term to share our learning and celebrate our successes. These will be posted on our calendar and parents are welcome to attend.
We are grateful for your support around the morning and afternoon routines has ensured we can enter and leave school safely. Please remember that school has a designated drop off area in a morning to help ease the problems with traffic. There are lots of friendly faces around to welcome your child and escort them to class but we do ask that cars are not left unattended. Our before school club will recommence from Monday 12th September. These operate from 8am. Children do not need to be booked on but will need to sign in on arrival. This provision is only available for children in years 1-6. Our after-school clubs will recommence from Monday 19th September, places need to be booked through the MCAS app. Booking opens at 3pm on Monday 12th September.
Finally, I would like to thank those families that attended our first ‘Meet the Teacher’ event. It was great to see so many parents! We hope this provided a chance for you to visit your child’s class and pass on any important information. There will be further opportunities throughout the year. If you have any questions, please find a member of our pastoral team who are around before and after school.
Wishing you an enjoyable and relaxing weekend
Mrs Claire Silk
