Dear Parents and Carers,
As the children of Oaks settle into their new year groups, I have been amazed to see such fantastic effort in writing. I take a keen interest in how the children approach their writing and love the opportunities to celebrate their progress and amazing outcomes. Such confidence in writing ultimately stems from a strong basis of reading (both in and outside of school), rich discussions and the opportunity to practice the key fundamental skills. Whether it be phonics or spelling work, chances to refine handwriting or even the chance to create stories, all additional work at home is extremely valuable and has an enormously positive impact that carries across into school life.
Please stay tuned for a number of parent workshops we will be running in the coming weeks for Phonics, Reading and Writing. Sign up sheets will be shared in due course.
