IMPORTANT INFORMATION RE CHANGES TO SCHOOL REOPENING

Changes to the re-opening of school

Further to Government updates around the easing of lockdown, and communication from our Mayor Ros Jones, I can confirm that we will be following her guidance and will therefore only open on 1st June for Key Worker and Vulnerable pupil provision. A phased re-opening of school to limited year groups will follow, subject to the conditions laid out in the Roadmap to easing restrictions being met. The plan for Woodfield is as follows:

Childcare provision for Key Worker’s will continue as normal 9am to 3pm but entry has moved to the Y3/4 gates – please see the attached flyer for more information.

Reception, Year One and Year Six pupils will be returning in the next phase and a date has not yet been confirmed so please remain home learning with these children and we will update you further when we have more information.

Phase Leaders have already spoken to all parents in eligible year groups and are now aware of who intends to return their child to school when we re-open. These parents will be contacted when we know the date for re-opening for their year groups.

Key Worker provision has changed and by accepting a keyworker place, you are agreeing to send your child to school Monday to Friday 9:00 – 3:00, during term time. We are not able to accommodate parents choosing to collect or drop off at other times within the school day. Should circumstances have changed and you no longer require their place please inform us via email asap.

To summarise we are fully closed over half-term (25th to 29th May) we then re-open for Key Worker Childcare only on the 1st of June. We will be back in contact to confirm when other children will commence being re-phased into school.

Further information including a Letter from Mayor Ros Jones, information on measures that need to be undertaken to support social distancing and a visual representation of how school is being set up to promote this are available in the news section of the website. Scroll down the page and click on the NEWS tab to the left of the screen.

Finally, it is important that if you are unclear of anything within this information you email school on admin@woodfield.doncaster.sch.uk to confirm arrangements before returning to school.

Novel Study

At Woodfield Primary, each year group has a number of core books which we read, enjoy and learn from. These books will be used in our reading, writing and topic lessons. This means that we will get to know a substantial number of books really well!

We are currently reading:

Year 1 Year 2

 

Times Tables

At Woodfield, we believe that when it comes to times tables, speed AND accuracy are important – the more facts children remember, the easier it is for them to do harder calculations. Times Table Rock Stars is a fun and challenging programme designed to help pupils master the times tables. To be a Times Table Rock Star you need to answer any multiplication fact up to 12×12 in less than 3 seconds!

Reading in Key Stage 1

For information on how we teach reading in Key Stage 1, please read the following leaflet. Copies have been emailed out and paper copies are available from reception.

 

Tuck Shop

The children in KS1 have the option to enjoy a healthy snack at play times on a Thursday and Friday. We ask that if you would like pay for tuck shop, you do so on a Monday so that we can purchase fresh snacks. Items are 50p each with a limit of 2 per child per day.

If you have any questions about the Tuck Shop, please see your child’s class teacher.

 

End of Key Stage 1 Assessments

Throughout the month of May, pupils in year 2 will sit their end of Key Stage 1 Assessment tests. These tests are commonly known as SATs and are used to contribute towards the teachers’ assessment of the pupils. For more information on the tests please watch this short video or speak to your child’s teacher.
