On Arrival
On Arrival
Children are greeted on the school yard by the class teacher. They then enter school, hang up their coats and bags, putting any lunchboxes and snack pots in the correct storage areas. Once in the classroom the children read their school reading books independently until it is time for the register. See Drop Off information
Break Times
Break Times
Children have a morning break and an afternoon break along with a break at lunchtime. This will be outside on the school yard unless the weather is very bad. The children do go out to play in the rain so it is very important that they always have a coat to wear.
Lunch
Lunch
All children eat their lunch in the school hall. Children can choose to have either a school dinner or bring their own packed lunch. Please see Lunchtime Information.
Home Time
Home Time
At 3:15 children will line up at the class gate to meet their parents. Please can parents make themselves easily seen by members of staff. Please inform the school if a different person will be collecting your child at home time. School will not release any child to a different adult unless directed by the parents before hand. If children are attending Jester's After School Club they will wait in their class until a member of Jester's staff collects them. See Pick Up information
PE
PE
Children are encouraged to come to school ready dressed for PE. They will need to wear plain black / grey jogging top and bottoms over the top for warmth which they will remove during the PE lesson.
Please make sure that all school uniform and PE kit is clearly labelled with the child's name as clothes can get muddled up! See PE kit information.
Reading
Reading
Children will need to bring their school reading books to school everyday so that they can have daily reading practise. They will also bring their books home every day to practise with an adult as often as possible. Regular reading practise at home is vital in order to help children progress with many aspects of their education.
Children will read to a member of staff at least once a week. They will bring home new reading books every week and will have a reading record book for staff and parents to write down comments about the child's progress.
Outdoor Lessons
Outdoor Lessons
Children will take part in outdoor lessons every week. This will be in all kinds of weather except for heavy downpours or extreme cold. Please ensure that your child has appropriate clothing for all types of weather so they can enjoy the sessions fully. This may involve sending your child with a hat, scarf and gloves in the winter. See Outdoor Clothing.
