St Paul

Our All Saints Family shall ARISE and shine for the light of The Lord is upon us. 

Welcome to St Paul’s Class

Year R

 

Our class teacher is Miss Dray - drays020@mastacademy.co.uk 

Our class Teaching Assistant is Mrs Turcanu

 

 

 

There are 23 children in St Paul's, and we share our learning environment with the children in St Peter's. Miss Kaye is the class teacher in St Peter's class, Mrs Smith is the class teaching assistant. 

 The children will be in their class group for morning/afternoon routines, adult led group times and story times. During the rest of the day the children will all be together, taking part in their Child Led activities, across both classrooms and our outside area. 

 

Below we have listed some helpful things about our class that we thought you might find useful to know.

 

Our Learning

  • It is important that your children arrive at school on time, and attend every day. Consistent absences/ lateness have significant impact on their learning. Regular lateness and absences will result in finings and court proceedings.
  • Our teachers use the EYFS curriculum for our planning, and we base our learning around what we are interested in.
  • https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/1007446/6.7534_DfE_Development_Matters_Report_and_illustrations_web__2_.pdf
  • We are using ideas from Cornerstones to give us an overall theme title, from which we then take ideas from the children about what they would like to learn about and discuss throughout the theme. 
  • We learn to read and write using the Read, Write, Inc. phonics programme. Parents can find out more here: Read, Write Inc. 
  • Literacy is very important to us, and reading and writing are school priorities this year. We love sharing and talking about stories, and developing our writing skills through a wide range of mark-making opportunities.
  • Our Mathematics curriculum focuses on number, and shape, space and measure.  We use some elements from the White Rose program.  Our work is mostly practical, but we are also encouraged to record our own mathematical thinking in various ways.
  • We follow 'Understanding Christianity', a Religious Education programme from the Rochester Diocese. You can find more information on the R.E. page.
  • We follow the Greenacre Sports Partnership P.E. curriculum.

 

 

Term 1 - Let's Explore and What Makes me Special!

 

This term we are learning and exploring our new school, our new peers and teachers. We will be making friends learning our new routine and exploring the area around our school. 

We will be learning about ourselves and what makes us special. What special skills we have, our likes and interests. 

 

Uniform

Our uniform consists of a white shirt/polo shirt, navy blue jumper/cardigan, grey or black trousers/skirt/dress/shorts and black shoes.

In summer girls can wear a blue and white checked dress.

Hair to be tied up at all times.

No jewellery, only stud earrings and not on PE days.

Shirts to be tucked in at all times.

PE

  • P.E. is on a Wednesday.
  • We bring our PE kit to school and it stays on our peg. It will come home to be washed at the end of every term.
  • We need to wear a white or our house coloured T-shirts, plain, dark shorts and plimsolls or trainers.
  • When it is cold outside we can keep warm with a pair of plain, dark tracksuit bottoms or leggings and our school jumper.
  • We need to tie our hair back and take off any jewellery before we come to school.

 

 

Behaviour

We follow the 6 school golden rules that every class in the school tries to follow.

 

We respect and follow our school values.

We look after property.

We work hard to achieve and shine brightly.

We listen carefully and follow instructions.

We are kind, gentle, inclusive and supportive.

We are safe and honest so everyone can enjoy school.

 

We have a traffic light system in class, where ‘Green to Go’ is rewarded, and yellowamber and red behaviour result in clearly defined consequences. If we move our face to yellow, we miss five minutes of our playtime. If we move our face to red, we will go to another class.

 

 

Rewards

  • Individuals are rewarded in class with stickers for great work or participation in activities.
  • Teamwork is something that we like to encourage within our class and we enjoy working hard in our class to earn different things. Once we get 10 stars in our jar we get a reward within our class. 
  • Individuals are chosen each week to go in the school praise book and names will be read out in celebration worship on a Friday. The three categories for the praise book are: Green to Go Star, Maths Star and Literacy Star. 
  • You may even receive a text message to tell you if we have done something wonderful.

 

Challenges

  • In every lesson, our teachers encourage us to deepen our learning through exciting challenges.
  • Each term, our teachers also give us a curriculum challenge that is related to our learning in school. It gives us a chance to show off our learning at home, and our teachers choose a child who has worked really hard on their challenge to win a special reward! This will be sent out at the beginning of each term, and should be handed in at the end of term. 

 

Homework

  • We will send out books for the children to read with you at home.  
  • Homework activities will be set every Friday. This will either be a literacy task or a numeracy task. We ask that this is completed by the following Friday.
  • Letter writing and number writing practice on alternate nights. 

 

​​​​

    Partnership Power

    • We have an informal open door policy in reception class
    • You can speak to our teachers in the mornings, or after school when all of the children have been seen off safely.
    • If these times are not convenient, you can phone the school office (01634 338922) and request that the teacher phones you back to arrange a mutually convenient time to meet.  Or you can write a note and send it in your child's book bag.
    • Please email me at drays020@mastacademy.co.uk if any other information is needed. 

    If your child is registered with the school as having specific special learning needs, please look at the home learning links to meet their requirements attached to this link. Thank you.
