Blue Class 2025 - 2026
Mrs Whittingham
Welcome to Autumn Term in Blue Class!
I’m very excited to welcome you all to Blue Class and look forward to getting to know you all. We have a busy term ahead, but our primary focus will be getting settled into our new classroom and the rhythms and routines in Blue Class.
Our topic this term is “Rivers and the Water Cycle” where we will get an understanding of the journey of a river from source to sea, the water cycle and more. We hope to learn more about our local river with a trip to Nantwich Museum and a guided river walk in October so keep your eyes peeled for more information regarding this.
PE
This half term our PE days will be Mondays and Fridays so don’t forget to send children to school in kits on those days.
Our team
Mrs Cliff will be supporting us in class this term. Mrs Barker will be teaching French and Computing on Tuesday afternoons, and on Friday afternoons there will be our sports coach taking PE and Mrs Barker teaching music.
Snacks
You are welcome to send your children in with a healthy snack for morning break. Alternatively, there will be toast available from the canteen – this will cost 25p per piece with a maximum of 2 pieces per child. Please ensure your children bring in their water bottles daily too.
Homework
For now, there will be no set homework, however your support is vital in helping your child make the most of their learning opportunities in school so please encourage them to read regularly (at least three to four times a week if possible). At the end of this year, your children will be completing a multiplication check as all children do in the summer term of year four, therefore I ask that you encourage them to play TTRS as much as possible. I am happy for you to use their reading diaries for sharing their progress in this and communicating anything else you wish. Any problems please let me know.
If you have any questions at all I will make myself available at drop off/pick up or of course if you need more time to talk email the office at admin@peartree.cheshire.sch.uk and they will forward me your email. Any daily communication can also be made via the children's reading diaries.
We can't wait to welcome you back!
Mrs Whittingham and the Blue Class team.
