Thank you for my gifts and also thank you from Mrs Mcdonagh - we are both going to save them for Christmas Day. Thank you also for all of my lovely cards and other special gifts. Thank you for all of your support this term. I am so proud of Watervole and the wonderful class they are. Wishing you all a merry Christmas and a happy and healthy 2024. Mrs Gurney x 

Your child has come home today with a spelling test on the 200 high frequency words. The words highlighted in yellow were incorrect and will be tested again in the weeks to come. If you could please tackle a few a week to learn at home then that would be really helpful to their everyday spelling.

Thank you

Thank you all so much for my beautiful, generous and thoughtful gift, it will be coming away with me on holiday. Have a brilliant Christmas and I’ll see you in the new year.

FOREST SCHOOL CLOTHING - here is a suggestion of what to wear for forest school sessions for the next 3 weeks as we have hit a cold spot.

AUTUMN/WINTER TERMS                   

During this time of year, your child needs to be prepared for a chilly and often wet session.

On forest school mornings each child should ideally be wearing ;

BASE LAYER 

Vest or thermal top

Tights or thermal leggings

MID LAYER

Long sleeved T-shirt top

Fleece top/jumper

Leggings/trousers (preferably a thicker type material for really cold weeks)

TOP LAYER – for really cold weeks

Thicker fleece /jacket

WATERPROOF LAYER

waterproof jacket

Waterproof trousers or dungaree trousers

EXTREMITIES

FOOTWEAR

Tights or socks – would advise two pairs of socks in the colder weeks, feet get cold in wellies, also ensure you have a suitable size that will fit two pairs of socks – if the boot is too tight it will also make the feet colder.

 HEAD AND HANDS

Wool hat and scarf/snood

Gloves/mittens
