Hello all and welcome back.
Our new Year 6s had a great first day of their final year at primary school. It was calm, focused and relaxed – an atmosphere I’m confident we can maintain throughout the year.
Our first Living and Learning statement of the year, ‘I can greet someone politely’, was put to the test having not seen many people for six weeks. There were a number of lovely greetings and lots of discussions about each other’s holidays.
Talk to your child at home about how they greet people:
- Do they greet everybody in the same way?
- What are different nice ways of greeting people?
- Do they know how to greet someone in a different language?
When your child comes in in the morning, remind them to greet the adult at the gate, other children in the playground and the members of staff in their class when they go inside.
