Parents and Journeys

Liaison with Parents
·There is an Information Evening at the start of each term for each year group.
·An interview evening is held each term to enable parents to meet their child's class teacher and discuss progress and areas needing development.
.Classteachers are always happy to talk to parents about their children. Please contact the teacher to arrange a convenient time.
·The Head Teacher is also very happy to meet current pupils' parents and provide tours of the school to prospective parents by appointment.
·Reports are sent to parents in the Spring Term followed by an opportunity for discussion with the classteacher.

Open House is held from 3:15 until 4:00pm on the first Wednesday of each month during term time. It is a chance for you to see the work your children have been doing in school during the previous few weeks, have a quick chat with the class teacher and a look around the school to see what other classes have been doing.
Newsletters are published every other Monday during term time, containing news and information about the school together with a list of dates for school events. Back to top
School Journeys

During the school year we run many day visits linked to work as well as residential visits. There is no substitute for the 'first hand' experience offered through these visits, which form a valuable part of our curriculum. The visits help to stimulate children's interest in their studies and specific knowledge. They also develop greater awareness of our local area and enable comparison between this environment and other areas. Residential trips provide excellent opportunities for personal and social growth as well.

Residential visits undertaken last year were by Year 6 who had a week at Osmotherly in North Yorkshire, Year 5 who spent four days exploring the Isle of Wight and Portsmouth and Year 4 who spent 3 days in Canterbury. Year 3 had a 'sleep-over' in school, which caused great excitement.

Different places may be chosen for future visits to suit subjects being studied.
