Parent partnership

Keeping in contact

There are formal opportunities during the school year to meet with class teachers but as and when issues come to light all Key Stage 1 staff are available, before and after school. Staff love to share snippets of success with those adults who are important to our children so we encourage parents and carers not to be strangers!

If you want to get in touch and don't have time to pop in for a chat, you can contact Miss Thornbery via email:  hannahthornbery@orgill.cumbria.sch.uk

Home learning in Key Stage 1

Reading

Please ensure that your child reads to you little and often throughout the week.  It is also important that your child hears you read to them frequently- storytime at bedtime is ideal!

Spelling

Y2 children will bring their spelling log home every day.  Please encourage and support your child in learning and practising the spellings they have written in there. These spelling logs need to be brought back into school each morning too.

Maths

We encourage our children to practise their times tables and number skills at home frequently by logging in and using Times Tables Rockstars and Numbots.
