Indigo Class 2025 - 2026

Staff 

Mrs O’Connor and Mrs Costa will be working in Indigo Class. 

PE 

PE this half term will be on Monday and Thursday. Children will need to come into school in their PE kits. 

Snacks and Water 

Children will need to bring a water bottle to school every day. Please ensure snacks are named. Snacks could include: a piece of fruit, vegetable sticks, cheese and crackers. We are a nut free school so please no nuts or sweets.   

Communication 

You will receive a weekly update from Indigo Team on a Friday via email. Please read this information carefully as we will share important information, changes and updates about our learning. You can find more information about what we are up to throughout the term in our long and medium term plan documents below. 

Please refer to our Newtletter via email for regular whole school updates. 

Home learning and Reading 

Home Learning will be handed out every Thursday and checked the following Thursday. Regular home reading is key. Please encourage your child to record their home reading in their reading diary and we will check these on a weekly basis.  We also urge you to check the reading diary to ensure your child is reading regularly and understands the text. Being a fluent reader is important but understanding the meaning of unknown words is crucial. Please encourage your child to ask for meanings of new or unfamiliar words so these can form part of their vocabulary. 

And here we are, the last term of Indigo.  This term promises to be another exciting term with plenty to keep us busy. 

We have some amazing texts to look at for our Writing root and literacy leaf- starting with The Man Who Walked Between the Towers by Mordicai Gerstein. In addition, we will be looking at North and South America, mountain regions, North and south American culture, Mexican food, Materials... we will also be working towards achieving a ‘Pear Tree Good Citizenship’ award.  

For other curriculum areas please see this term’s Medium-Term Plan at the bottom of the webpage. There is also a Summer weekly timetable attached, but this is subject to change due to busy Primary School life.  

Let’s make this last term in Indigo Class an incredible one!   

The quote for this term
