We wish you all a very happy half term fortnight and will take this opportunity to let you know the Thames Valley Police Halloween code:
Please only call at houses you know! Don’t knock on doors where there is a “No trick or treat” sign.
Be visible – your children may be dressed as dark beings but they need to be seen by other road users.
Take a torch with you.
Stay in areas lit well by street lights. Be careful not to frighten vulnerable people, especially the elderly.
Don’t let your children talk to strangers on the street.
Don’t let your children go into any houses.
No treat means no trick – don’t let a good night go bad. Please respect other people’s wishes!

The half term has disappeared in a wink but it has been lovely to see so many children settled and enjoying the nursery routines.

They have used their mathematics skills to arrange pictures in size order, have created a wonderful display of the tale by creating bears and their possessions in different sizes and have eaten real porridge.

The week commencing 7th November the nursery classes will be learning about and discussing “Snow White”, and will do a range of related crafts. Their number is 7, the colour is white the letter is k. Transition children will be reading and learning about “Jack and the Beanstalk” and the letter p.
