PPA (planning, preparation and assessment) cover is also provided for the teachers in Blue Area by Swift Sports Teachers and will be on a Monday afternoon.
If you have any messages, questions or queries, please write a note in your child’s school planner and ask them to show the planner to their teacher. (Planners are only collected in by the teacher on Mondays) Alternatively, you can make an appointment to meet with your child’s teacher via the school office.
PE Days
On PE days, the children should come to school wearing their PE kit. For safety purposes, earrings should be removed for PE lessons. Earrings can be covered with tape for the 6 weeks after the initial piercing but should then be removed for PE activities. If your child cannot take them out themselves, please ensure they are taken out and left at home.
PE days are as follows:
Turquoise Class: Monday
Topaz Class: Monday
Sapphire Class: Monday
