Books need to be returned on a Monday and Thursday morning for your child to be issued with another reading book. Please comment in their reading record to share with staff.

P.E:
Reception PE day is Monday. Your child is to come into school wearing their PE kit and appropriate footwear.

Outdoor Play:
At Thomas Gray we believe in the important of outdoor play to the holistic development of all children. This year we have provided each child in the class with their own waterproof outdoor suit to keep them warm and dry when it rains. Please can we request that you send in a pair of wellies for your child to keep in school which will help them to enjoy investigating and exploring, whatever the weather!

SeeSaw:
We will share photographs of activities we complete during the school day. We would love for you to share photographs of what you do outside of school with the children.

Stay and Read:
On a Monday we would love for you to stay between 8:30 to 9 to share books with your child.
