Claremont Special

S4

Welcome back to Term 1!

Welcome back to school - I hope that you all had a good half-term holiday. We are pleased to welcome Melina as a new LSA in our team.

Term 1 Theme

This term we will be continuing the theme of Media. We will be doing lots more fun media themed activities - sensory stories, cooking, music and games. We will then move on to Christmas related activities for the last few weeks of term. We are even hoping to make a short movie/ show and present it to you closer to Christmas.  We will continue our weekly enrichment activities with students from Redland Green and will be getting to know each other a bit more and enjoy creating music and participating in games!

RSE  

We will continue to cover the area ‘Keeping  safe and looking after myself.’

RE

RE - This term we will be having a Christmas assembly - we are lucky enough to have Redland Church leading this. We will be learning about Christmas and will also have assemblies for: Bonfire night; Remembrance day; Anti Bullying week; World hello day and International Day of Disabilities.

Swimming

Swimming will be on Tuesdays this year. Please send a costume, 2 towels, tegaderms and continence pants into school on Tuesday morning and we will return it for washing when we have used it. At the moment we are unable to use our swimming pool, however a plan is being made and will be shared with you in due time.

Home-school contact

Please use the home-school diary or email either of us with any questions and updates. If you need to speak to us for any reason please phone the school office on 01173533450 (Redland campus) If your child is going to be absent for any reason we really appreciate an early morning phone call to the office by 8.30am and a message left on the answering machine, as this greatly helps us plan our staffing. Thank you.
