Squash - If your child has a packed lunch from home they can also bring a bottle containing squash to drink at lunchtime only.

AUTUMN TERM TOPIC
Our topic this term is called 'Night or day?'. A newspaper report of a nuclear explosion in Tonyrefail and a video of the destruction left in our school grounds, with a star left hanging in our trees during the day, was a great way to start the topic to enthuse and inspire the children to want to find out more!
This topic will enable the children to explore 'after dark' including finding out about the moon, stars, nocturnal animals and familiar routines at the end of the day and will be linked to all areas of the Welsh curriculum.
In this topic the children will learn about :
Exciting Times - We will also be holding a Pyjama Day when the children can wear their pyjamas to school and bring their favourite bedtime cuddly toy with them , and.....
arrange a visit from the Owl Sanctuary when we will get to meet different types of Owls and other nocturnal animals!
More information to follow.
I am sure you will agree that this is a very exciting way to start the Reception year and I know the children will enjoy participating in both the indoor and outdoor activities that are planned and linked cross curricular to the skills of the new Welsh curriculum.
Regular photographic and video updates will be posted on dojo so be sure to check regularly on our class page.
Many thanks
