Dalmatians 

 

 

Welcome to the Dalmatians class page. Here you can find up to date information about the MAGIC learning that your child will be taking part in during our topics. We have lots of fun learning in Dalmatians and have many MAGIC moments every day. To strengthen our links between home and school we have included some useful links below to provide key information and opportunities for children to continue their learning at home. Share them with your child and ask them to show you all of the fabulous learning that we have been doing in school. 

 

Let's meet our Spotacular staff!

This page is intended to help you feel involved and informed of everything that we do.

Please take the time to explore our page where you will find lots of important information about your child's learning.

 

In our class, we encourage the children to follow our school rules; 

Ready

We are always ready!

We are patient and we pay attention so that we can be super learners!

Respectful 

We look after ourselves, each other and the school property.

We take care in all that we do.

Safe

We listen carefully so that we are safe at all times.

We use our kind hands and we follow the instructions all of the time.

 

     Here is a copy of a generic timetable in the Reception class to give you an idea of what your child's day may look like. 

This page is all about the learning that we do in the Dalmatian class .

We hope that you find the information useful and if you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask a member of staff.

 

 

Homework

In Reception Dalmatians we really value parental support with homework as it is an extension of children’s learning in school. 

Your child will also be set weekly homework online via ClassDojo. This is usually set on a Monday  to be completed by the following Monday.  

Don't for get to read with your child at home daily and join in with the Star Reader Challenge.
