On Monday, we had our first ‘Jump up’ day, where the children spent the day in Year 1. They all returned smiling, full of warmth for their new teachers and eager to share their experiences of the day. Evie told us that she “was a little bit nervous but now I’m not because I played in the construction area and built a really really big tower”. Francesca was excited that she had “made something I never made before….a special thing”. Wednesday played with Pia, whom she described as, “my best friend forever”.

In helping our new teachers to get to know us better, we have written to them.

The children know that if they have any questions about next year, they can come and talk to the adults in school. We have also encouraged them to voice any thoughts to you at home. We are going to miss every single one of you!
