Useful Information

PE

Our PE day is Tuesday. Please ensure that your child comes to school in PE kit on Tuesdays, and that long hair is tied back. It's great to do PE OUTSIDE, so layers and spare socks would be fantastic!

Forest School

Our Forest School day is every Monday. Please ensure that your child comes to school every Monday in suitable forest school clothing. Forest school will take place in ALL WEATHER except for high winds, so please ensure that your child is suitably dressed for the cold! Your child is welcome to leave their wellies in school so can arrive and leave in another pair of shoes.

Wellies

At Ashton Hayes, we LOVE to get outdoors whenever we can and in all weathers! To save those muddy footprints coming into the classroom, please can all children have a pair of wellies in school at all times. There is plenty of space to store wellies outside our classroom, so your child can leave them in school if you wish.

Reading Folders

We ask the children to bring in their reading folders every day so that we can hear them read, so that we can benchmark them, and so that we can check that everybody is getting on okay. Our official change of books day is on a Thursday.

Spelling

Weekly spellings will be set on a Thursday (paper lists will come home with the children), with a check up of these words the following Thursday. Spelling lessons will take place throughout the week, however a little bit of extra practice of these words at the weekend will really support your child's learning.

Water Bottles

Please ensure that your child has a water bottle in school with them every day.
