Willows (Reception /Year 1)

Welcome to 
 Willow Class 

The Team

Miss Evans: Class Teacher
Miss Kayla: Class Teaching Assistant 

Here you will find some useful information:

Homework bags need to be brought to school every Monday so that they can 'quarantine' for 3 days. They will be sent back out on Friday. 

P.E sessions are every Friday - kit needs to be worn to school.

There are several websites your child has personal log-ons for to help them with their learning. These have been sent home. Please see us for details if they have been forgotten. These websites include Seesaw, PurpleMash, and Reading Eggs.

Please don't hesitate to see us if you have any queries. 

Diolch for your continued support in these difficult times,

Miss Evans and Miss Kayla. 

We will get through this together!
