Newsletter: Autumn 2 

Hello Parents/Carers and children of The Orchard,

We are writing to you to inform you of some changes to The Orchard for after half term. Firstly, we have some sad news regarding Miss Jones, who will be leaving us at half term. Miss Jones will be leaving us to spend some quality time with her family back in Northampton. Of course we will miss her but we wish her all the best back home and Keep in Touch Miss Jones! J  

Therefore, Mrs Linnecor will be coming back to teach in The Orchard alongside Miss Stocks, Miss Stokes, Miss Pearce and Mrs Stanton. The children will do morning learning either in the Apple group bubble or Pear group bubble but all of The Orchard children will play together at break and lunch times outside.

Sport days
In The Orchard, your child will have PE on Tuesday. On Tuesday, your child needs to come to school in their PE kit including trainers. See pictures below. PE will take place outside so wear a tracksuit. Do not bring a PE bag into school. Thank you.

How do people around the world celebrate?
This term we are going to be looking at different cultures and religions and how people around the world celebrate. We will start learning about Harvest the first 2 weeks back after half term.  Over the holiday, please support your children in researching about different celebrations and cultures.

See below the timetable of the different adults in each room:

If you have any questions, please ask any adult from The Orchard or email Mrs Linnecor.
