'Booket' List
We have selected a list of books that your children will enjoy this year that we will read and reread for enjoyment.
Reminders
Water: Please ensure that your child has a bottle of water every day, labelled with their name, to keep them hydrated throughout the day. Part of the EYFS curriculum is to promote oral health so please fill the bottle with water only. Children will also have water during lunchtime.
Snack: Children have fruit provided every morning. Children can also bring in one healthy snack (i.e. fruit or cereal bar) for the afternoon play which will be kept in their tray.
- No chocolate or crisps permitted.
- Please note that we are a nut-free school due to the severe allergies that we have.
P.E kits: Please ensure your child has a named P.E. kit in school. Their kit can remain in school for the half term unless parents specifically ask for it to be sent home.
Forest School: Children do not need any extra clothing for Forest School as we will provide it.
Milk: Children who are four will be offered free milk from Cool Milk every afternoon. Once children turn five, parents must log on to the Cool Milk website to arrange for paid milk for their child if required.
Please ensure all book bags, coats, jumpers, P.E. kits, snack or lunch bags and water bottles are clearly labelled with your child’s name.
