Welcome to Willow Class
Miss. C. Glover - Willow class Teacher
Hello!
My name is Miss Glover, I am Early Years Lead and Willow Class teacher. Mrs Jackson is our Willow class TA and Miss Hilton supports children in class. In the Early Years, we encourage children to learn and develop through focused adult-led as well play based learning, by exploring being active and creative and above all by having lots of fun!

Reading
Our reading expectations are that the children should be reading at least 4 times a week and have their reading records signed each time they read. This is to help the children build up their reading stability, build up their confidence of segmenting and blending new sounds and also to develop a love of reading. Children have their reading records checked every day in school so that we can closely monitor home reading and will get 5 dojos for meeting their reading target; we fully understand that there are things that can come up during the week that can’t be helped. Please let the class teacher know if you are having any issues.
School lunches
Please order your child's school dinner via the grid (app). If you have any problems please contact the office. If you would like your child to be on pack lunches please notify Miss Glover.
PE Day
Willow class PE day is on a Tuesday.
We ask that children come to school wearing their full PE kit, a school jumper or cardigan and trainers.
Coach Leon from Ed-Start will be taking PE sessions. These lessons usually take place in the hall this time of year but some sessions may take place outside. We advise children wear (red or black) leggings or jogging bottoms in the winter for this reason.
Communication
We have an open door policy. Please feel free to speak to a member of staff at drop or pick up. Alternatively you can call the office and a member of staff will return your call.
