Aspen Class 2024/25

This year you will be working with Miss Bainbridge, Mrs Fox, Miss Brown and Mrs Thompson.

Our topic this term is 'Our World'.

This term (Autumn term) we will be reading 'The Explorer' by Katherine Rundell as it links to our topic. Our reading lessons will also be linked to this book. To find out more about what we will be learning about this half term then look at our parent forecast for the Autumn term.

PE is on a Wednesday however please bring your PE kit in on a Monday and leave it in school until Friday on your peg. This should be in a small bag, NOT a backpack/rucksack. You will need a change of footwear and a plain t-shirt/shorts. 

Remarkable Readers!

Reading is extremely important at Kirkby Avenue Primary School, therefore you must take your book and diary home every night and try your best to become a 'remarkable reader'.

Each time your child reads they achieve a 'Reading point'. This could be for:

Reading at home

At home independently

Points are cumulative and will be added up weekly throughout the year.

35 points = Bronze Award

70 points = Brilliant Bronze Award

105 points = Silver Award

140 points = Super Silver Award

175 points = Gold Award

210 points = Glittering Gold Award

Star stickers will be added to your personal bookmark each week and prizes handed out to those that have achieved all of their stars each half-term!
