Last week, children in Reception met their Year 4 ‘buddies’ for the first time.
The buddies scheme involves all children in Reception being paired with a Year 4 buddy – someone to talk to, play with, and to be a familiar face around the school for the younger children as they settle into Tannery Drift.
There was much excitement in both year groups on their first meeting, and the children are looking forward to spending more time together this term.
Choosing a Nursery or Reception place for your child?
On Tuesday 23rd September, parents and carers are invited to join us for Year Group meetings.
Each Year group will hold 2 meetings; one at 6–6.30pm and one at 6.30-7pm, and you are welcome to attend either time (please turn up, there is no need to book). Meetings will be held in the relevant Year Group areas and entrance will be via external classroom doors. Unfortunately, on this occasion, children cannot be accommodated during the meetings.
We are looking forward to seeing lots of you at the meetings. We encourage in-person attendance if possible as we know how crucial home-school partnerships are to educational success.
Presentations will be shared on the class pages of the website the following week.
It has been wonderful seeing the children settle into their new year groups this week, and particularly lovely to see our Nursery and Reception children embracing their new settings and getting to know each other and their teachers.
