Reporting to parents mid and end of year:
This year our reports will be sent out digitally through our SMS (Student Management System) called Linc-Ed. You will be given instructions on how to access the report later in the term. Parents can then keep tabs at any time on their child’s progress, attendance, school account through their log in on Linc-Ed. Teachers are currently writing the reports which will be ready for you at the end of week 9 this term.
Book Fair:
Enchanted Forest Book Fair
Tuesday 4 to Friday 7 June 2019
Our annual Book Fair is back!!!!
Our Book Fair begins on Tuesday in the library. This is a chance for everyone to participate and get the reading bug…we have competitions, lunchtime activities and of course the opportunity to purchase books from Ashton Scholastic.
The opening times are – before school from 8.30am, at lunchtime and from approximately 2pm to 4pm.
There are all sorts of books from non-fiction to chapter books to picture and colouring in books. The purchases enable us to choose free books for the library which in turn helps everyone in the school. Also, donations of books for the library or class are always appreciated!
As well as lunchtime activities and competitions, we will run a miniature garden competition. The children can make miniature gardens (sand saucers) at home and bring them on Wednesday to display. As the theme of the Book Fair is ‘Enchanted Forest’, the children can use their imagination to create a garden/forest of their own. Think trees, ponds, bridges, flowers, animals, buildings, books etc.
Friday is dress-up day. The children can come dressed as their favourite book character or something inspired by the theme, ‘Enchanted Forest’…Fairy tale characters, animals, trees, magical creatures are some suggestions. Bring a gold coin donation towards the cost of running the Book Fair.
So please come down and see what’s happening in the library and encourage your child to join in the reading fun.
Any queries, contact Mrs V 😊
