Welcome to Peregrine class, year 5, where your teachers are Mrs Barrett and Mrs Norris and your teaching assistants are Mrs Bettridge and Miss Capewell. Below you will find some useful information about being a Peregrine. On the right you can find out everything you need to know about your home learning.

Teaching pattern

Mrs Barrett teaches the class on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday mornings. Monday and Wednesday afternoons are taught by a carousel of specialist teachers. Wednesday afternoon, all day Thursday and all day Friday is taught by Mrs Norris. 

PE days
Peregrines have PE on Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons. Children wear their PE kits to school on a PE day. For safety purposes, children also need to remove any earrings or jewellery and long hair should be tied back before coming to school, wherever possible.

Water bottles
Please ensure your child brings a labelled bottle of water to school each day.  The children are advised to take their bottles home each evening to wash them and bring them back refilled for the following day. Please note juice or squash is not permitted as a drink throughout the day.

Outdoor clothes
Children are encouraged to use the whole school site all year round. Therefore, please make sure that your child has waterproof clothing, wellington boots and a coat in school every day. Waterproof clothing can consist of top and bottoms or an all-in-one suit. Please ensure that all items are clearly labelled with your child's name. 

Equipment you will need

All stationery will be provided, children are not permitted to bring a pencil case. School will provide a reading scheme book alongside a book of the child's choice, these should be in school every day.

Reading at home

Home reading should be recorded in the reading record provided - we aim for 5 reads per week. Reading records are checked regularly in school on a Monday.
