We are excited to be putting together this performance for Y1-Y6 in a few weeks. The classes will take us on an exciting journey of dance from around the world. Every child and every class will be performing. The production is on Wednesday 24th and Thursday 25th July in our school hall. Each day there will be 2 performances - 1 from Y1-3 and 1 from Y4-6. Tickets are free but parents do need to sign up via the links below to request tickets. It is important that we carefully control numbers in the audience for fire regulations, so this is a ticket only event. Parents without tickets may not be able to watch the show if the performance is full.
Performances for Y1-3 (Wednesday am, Thursday pm)
Performances for Y4-6 (Wednesday pm, Thursday am)
Each child will be allocated 2 tickets initially. If you have multiple children, you will need to request tickets for each child and then you will be allocated multiple tickets. Registration for tickets will close on the 17th of July. There will be a voluntary collection for our charities at each performance.
Here is a document that shows the phonics letter sounds (phonemes) and words that are taught to the students during their time in KS1. The word banks consist of sample words that contain specific letter sounds. These word banks can be used as a guide when practising the skills of blending (putting sounds together to read a word) and segmenting (separating sounds to spell a word).
Please note that this is OPTIONAL and organized by a 3rd Party Organization
