Year 6 will be attending an event at Sutton Library on Thursday 24th October.

The event is part of the Junior Citizenship Scheme during which children will learn skills such as how to travel on public transport alone and first aid.

We will be leaving school at 9am and travelling to Sutton Library by bus.

As the event finishes at 12pm, all children will need to bring a packed lunch for that day which we will eat at school once we return.

We have our school Photographers visiting Cheam Fields Primary on Friday 25th October to take individual photos of the children.

All children need to arrive in school uniform including their school jumpers. 

If you have more than one child in the school and would like a sibling photo, please arrive at school from 7:45am and come to the main office. You will need to wait with your children while their photos are taken together. After they have had their photos taken you will need to take them to the main playground gate at the normal time of 8:30-8:40am

Friday 25th October

As part of the children’s topic, 'People of the Past’, for next half term, we have arranged a 'Quest for Neil Armstrong and Christopher Columbus' History workshop to take place in school. In this workshop, the children will meet a young Neil Armstrong, launch into space in Apollo 11 and then splash down in the Pacific as they travel home from the moon, unearthing many a moon landing fact along the way.

The workshop will take place on Friday 25th October and the cost per child is £5.00. This will be payable through Arbor/Activities/Trips. 

Thursday 7th November

As part of next half term’s Geography lessons, Year 2 will be learning about map symbols, compass directions and key geographical vocabulary. To celebrate the start of this topic, we will be going on a local walk to Cheam Park Cafe on Thursday 7th November. On the walk we will be looking at the route that we take, as well as spotting key geographical features that may need to be recorded on a map. 

We will be leaving school after we have completed the register, at approximately 9am. We would be very grateful for any parents who are able to accompany us on this walk. If you are available and would like to accompany us, then please let your class teacher know or email the office. Please send your child with weather appropriate clothing on the day i.e. a raincoat if it is raining or there is a chance of rain.

We are excited to announce our upcoming Year 3 Stone Age Sleepover! This evening will be a prehistoric adventure for your child with them getting to immerse themselves in activities such as shelter building, scavenger hunts and much more. 

The sleepover will take place on Friday 8th November 2024.  On the day, we ask you to collect your child as normal at the end of the day. They will then need to return to school at 7pm in their pyjamas with the following:

• a warm coat and appropriate footwear as some activities will be taking place outside

• a spare blanket for shelter building 

• a torch 

• a pillow and a sleeping bag (or equivalent)

• a mat to sleep on

• a cuddly toy (if they wish)

• toothbrush and toothpaste

Please do not provide snacks for your child as all food will be supplied, including a hot drink before bed and breakfast in the morning. There will also be no need to send a change of clothes as children will leave in their pyjamas when being collected.

Please complete this form by Friday 25th October to confirm your child’s participation in the trip. We also ask you to please make a payment of £3 on Arbor/Activities/Trips to help cover the costs of the sleepover.

Tuesday 12th November 24

We have some wonderful activities planned for your children this Autumn term, including:

Early Years’ Story Hunt - Fairy Tales Storytelling Workshop: Tuesday 12th November 2024.

In Autumn 2, your child will be taking part in an engaging storytelling workshop as part of our ‘Once Upon a Time’ topic at school. The children will go on an imaginary journey to discover and explore favourite fairy tales such as ‘Jack and the Beanstalk’, ‘The Gingerbread Man’, ‘The Ugly Duckling’ and ‘Goldilocks and the Three Bears’. Using songs, rhymes and activities, the children learn different tales and about the importance of storytelling. They'll embark on an exciting imaginary journey filled with songs and rhymes!

• The cost of this workshop is £6 per child.

• You can pay through the Arbor online system.

We're confident that your children will thoroughly enjoy these experiences. Thank you in advance for your support and cooperation!
