Parent and Carer Talks- The World at Work
29th October-1st November
During the week of Monday 29th October after half term we would like to invite parents and carers into our school to share their experiences of work life. We would love these to include a variety of roles that are undertaken in our community, including the important role of being a stay at home parent/voluntary and unpaid work. We would encourage you to phone in or sign up at the office this week to come in on a day that is convenient to you to talk to the pupils in a range of classes. This would ideally be to the class which your child is in and also another class/year group in the school. This will last for 5-10 minutes where you would have the opportunity to explain your role to the children and have them ask you questions at the end. This exciting event will take place throughout the week and will last from 2:30-3:30pm each day, Monday to Thursday.
We would value all parents/carers contributions to these talks and would like to thank you in advance for your time.
Reading Meeting
Thank you to those who attended the reading meeting this morning. It was lovely to see so many of you. If you were unable to attend I have attached the powerpoint from the meeting along with the TES guide to the 100 Books to Read Before Leaving Primary School and questions to prompt discussion when reading at home.
If you have any specific questions regarding your child’s reading please speak either to your child’s class teacher or myself.
