Forest School - Starting Tuesday 10th September...
We are very pleased to inform you that this year we will be offering ‘Forest School’ sessions at Shatterlocks. Our Forest School will be taking place on Tuesday for Shatterlocks starting from next week (week beginning the 9th September).
As Forest School is an all year round and all-weather activity, it is vitally important that the correct clothing is worn by the children. Parents will need to provide their children with a waterproof jacket, tracksuit bottoms, a t-shirt and a jumper/hoody that they DO NOT MIND getting muddy as well as old trainers or wellington boots. Please let us know if this is a problem and we will try our best to help you.
Children in Year 1 will have the afternoon session so will need to have their Forest School clothes in a bag to get changed into at school.
If you have any questions, please contact the school office.
Our topics for this year 2024/25 are:
P.E day for year one children is scheduled for Thursday
Please remove your child's earrings on these days - The adults in the school are not allowed to remove any children's earrings. However, if your child can remove them we will provide an envelope to keep them safe.
TERM ONE -
TEACHER LED PE SESSION ON THURSDAY
Children will need to come to school WEARING their school uniform where they will then change into their PE kit at school.
We will update you throughout the year with any changes to P.E days.
We are very excited to be able to share your child's learning and experiences with you.
Please look out for your invite to join - this has been sent to your email address.
