Welcome

I can’t believe that we are nearly at the end of term and it will be time for our year 2 children to go to their new schools. We wish them all the best for this and know they will shine like the stars they are.  Transition day is Wednesday 1st July, see below for more information.

 

Thank you for being so welcoming to me.  I have thoroughly enjoyed my first term at King Richards.

Please keep reading for important information.

 

Transition Day

All year 2 children must go to their new school for the full day, no need to come to King Richards.  If your child has a school dinner we will drop them off at the school so no need to worry.

All other children will come to school at usual time and will move to their new class in the school day and spend the day with their new teacher.

 

Celebration assembly

On Fridays we have our celebration assembly in the afternoon at 2.30pm.  If your child is chosen for an achievement certificate then you will receive a Weduc/ Reach More Parents invite to attend the assembly, through the inbox messaging service. Please come through our main reception, to be in the hall for 2.25pm, assembly will start promptly at 2.30pm.  We look forward to you joining our assembly.

 

Weather

Please send your child dressed for all weather eventualities, sunhats for the sun, a coat in case of rain. Fingers crossed we are moving more to sunshine and warmer weather,

Please ensure your child has a water bottle in school each day.

 

Non-Uniform Day

Our first non-uniform day was a real success and we raised £67.49 for school funds so we will be holding another one on  Friday 10th July the children can give a donation of £1 to come to school in their own clothes.

 

Tesco voting

Our application for the Tesco blue counter voting has been successful.  This means when you go shopping please vote for us as we are raising funds to support improvement of the KS1 outdoor areas.

Voting will commence in store from Tuesday 28th April 2026 until the end of July 2026

 

Weduc/ reach more parents

PLEASE DOWNLOAD THIS APP.  This will be our main communication tool in school - Teachers will also be posting messages, work and pictures.

We are trying to be sustainable and go paperless for letters and permission slips.  Again, all parents should have this App on their mobile phones and be checking it daily for information.

 

Book bags

Every child should have a book bag and this should be bought to school every day, this includes Nursery Children.

Reading is a key and important skill for life.
