Welcome to Robins Class

Welcome back to the Summer Term! I honestly cannot believe we are in our final term of the year already—where has the time gone?

I hope you all had a lovely Easter break and managed to enjoy some rest, family time, and maybe even a little sunshine!

We are back in Robins and ready for a busy and exciting term ahead. Our main focuses this half term will be developing pencil grip, improving letter formation, and securing number bonds to 10. These early skills make such a huge difference and we will be practising them lots through our play, provision, and adult-led learning.

As always, seeing the children on Tuesday absolutely filled my cup!  They bring so much joy, laughter, and light into our classroom every single day—and speaking of light… sunshine! Summer term means sunnier days, which we absolutely love in Robins (keep an eye out for some green fingered adventures soon).

Please can every child have a named sun hat in school every day, and named sunglasses too if they would like to bring them. We also ask that sun cream is applied at home before school each morning, as we are unable to apply this for the children during the school day. If your child has sun cream in their bag for later in the day, please make sure this is clearly named. If needed, we can support the children in applying this themselves before lunchtime.

A little plea from the Robins team—please, please, please name everything! Especially all those lovely new school shoes, jumpers, cardigans, and uniform pieces. We know it is easy to forget, but the children have a remarkable talent for taking things off and flinging them into the furthest corner of the playground, field, or classroom… and then having absolutely no idea where they left them! If items are named, they usually manage to find their way back to us eventually.

Thank you, as always, for your continued support. We are so excited for a wonderful final term together!
