Welcome to the Infant Class page. This year, each teacher has chosen an influential figurehead as our class name. As a Church of England school, we feel that is important to give the children inspirational people to aspire to; people who have challenged the ideals of others and people who have made an impact on the lives of many.

The infant courageous advocate is Oliver Jeffers. 

The School Day

The gates and classroom doors will open at 8:50 and close at 9:00, after 9:00 the children will be expected to go to the office to be registered. 

All the children will be having break and lunch together. 

School will finish at 3:30 and children will be let out at this time and will not be coming out earlier. We will continue with the children coming to school in P.E kits and Woodland kits on their respective days.

PE Kit - Thursday's (9:30-10:30)

Navy blue/black shorts or joggers/leggings, white t-shirt, trainers. The children can wear their school jumper or alternatively a navy blue jumper or hoodie

Forest School - Thursday's (1:30-2:30)

Children must wear long trousers (jeans/joggers/leggings), a t shirt and a long sleeved pullover. They must come in trainers and bring either wellies or walking boots. They will need a waterproof coat and waterproof trousers and, for when the weather turns colder, a hat and gloves. Please note that the children will go to the woods in all weathers except for high wind so must have the correct clothing in school. The woods are very shaded so even on a seemingly warm day, they can get chilly. 

Play Times

At the start of the academic year, the Year 6 children created a playground rota for all the juniors so that play-times are fun and physical. They are in charge of getting out all the equipment and setting the games up.

The timetable is shown below: 

Monday: Football, Tuesday: Dodgeball, Wednesday: Basketball/Netball, Thursday: Hockey, Friday: Fun Friday & Craft Club.

Everyday, they get out lots of equipment for all the infants to play with, this equipment promotes physical and co-operative play. The Year 6's rotate throughout the week to come and play with the infants too. On Fridays, the Year 6 girls have set up a fabulous Craft Club. They plan activities which they organise and set up themselves. 

There also opportunities for those who do not want to do the activities. The tyres are used as dog sleds or just a place to chill and chat, and with all the wonderful grassy areas the mini-beasts are kept very happy with the number of bug houses created. The atmosphere at playtime is wonderful and it is so lovely to see ALL the children interacting so well.
