This week, we have begun to the transition process for our Year 6 children. Houstone have been in and spoken with the children who will be attending in September. Over the coming weeks, our Year 6 children will be visiting their new settings - we hope they have a fantastic time!

We are finalising the teaching structure for next academic year and details of this will follow at the end of next week. Our transition afternoons will be taking place on Monday 7th and Tuesday 8th July. On Tuesday 8th July we will also be holding a meet the teacher event straight from school. Further details will be avaliable in transition letter which you will receive next week.

Next Friday is Tithe Farm's sports day. The event will be run in a similar way to previous years with the children taking part in a number of events and some races to finish the session. Please ensure your child has a hat, drink and jumper (if it is cooler) so that they are prepared for sports day.

Entry and exit to and from the site will be through the Key Stage 2 gate.

We are aware that there is already an amber weather warning in place for Monday and Tuesday next. To support the children feeling cooler and less restricted, if they wish to, children may wear their PE kits to school on these days. Please note that football kits, branded sports wear and logoed t-shirts are not part of PE kit and will (if worn) result in a phone call home and a request to bring appropriate clothes to school.

PE kit:

• A plain red t-shirt

• black shorts, leggings or skort

Please also ensure that your children come to school with a hat, suncream applied and fresh water. We will take necessary precautions at lunchtime and breaktime to ensure children do not become overly hot.

We have changed the format of our end of year reports this year. As part of this, they will be sent out via email. Please ensure that the school has the correct email address and that your inbox has the storage to accept emails.
