It has been another busy week at Glebe as we begin to organise lots of opportunities for you to visit and join in your children’s learning. Please take a moment to look at the key dates.
The children all looked fantastic in their non-uniform today, supporting Genes for Jeans day. Thank you for participating in this event.
As we move into next week, we hope to be able to share the details regarding parents’ evening. As before, a bridging club will be provided for those parents who need it. Following feedback, I will look to increase the number of pupils we can have attending, but will need to look at staff numbers first, so that safety and supervision is paramount.
Whilst monitoring with Mr Munford, our Chair of Governors, this week, I was thrilled to see such great settled learning behaviours around the school. The children were engaged, motivated and enthusiastic. Well done. I was also particularly impressed by the quality of the presentation in the Year 3 and 4 books that I have seen. The children are clearly working incredibly hard with their writing.
Across the school, the children are embedding the use of our new handwriting scheme and you can see a strong effort in presentation from everyone.
We wish you all a fantastic weekend and look forward to seeing you all back here on Monday morning.
