Flexi study

This new option for all girls in Reception to Year 6 will run Monday - Thursday in the dining room. This option will run in addition to the more formal Study and Homework Club sessions and should be used if you wish to pick your daughter up between 4pm and 5pm. It can be used on an ad-hoc basis for example if you are running late or have a last minute change of plan. If you have any questions, please ask your class teacher.

A spotlight on…

As mentioned last week, I would like to give you a little more information about how the girls learn how to spell. From Reception, we build upon the knowledge that the girls have developed in our Nursery School by continuing the multi-sensory approach to phonological awareness. Our phonics and spelling programme is adaptable to meet the needs of all learners which fits in with our progressive English curriculum.  Through fun differentiated activities which are age-appropriate, the girls learn phonic strands, spelling rules and patterns and high frequency words which they practise in class and consolidate through weekly differentiated dications. We are proud to say that this established programme based on Letters and Sounds allows the girls to show accuracy and understanding of spelling principles.
