  • Discuss the school day with your child – ask them what they’ve been learning about.
  • Hear you child read EVERY DAY so they can keep earning merit points!
  • Ensure your child has all the equipment they will need in school each day (especially their Reading Record, PE kit, water bottle and welly boots!)
  • Follow the class Twitter feed for regular updates about our learning: @nectony1
