We hope that you have had an enjoyable holiday!
During the autumn term, we will be welcoming back our current Class 8 pupils and welcoming some new friends who we are eager to meet and looking forward to getting to know. We will use the autumn term to settle into our routines in our new purpose-built building which we have called ‘The Hive’ and build relationships with one another.
Within Class 8 our curriculum has been adapted the curriculum to meet the needs of our pupils guided by their individual EHCP plans covering Communication and Interaction, Cognition and Learning, Social, Emotional and Mental Health, and Sensory and/or Physical needs.
Throughout each day, children will have regular access to sensory and physical breaks. As always, their communication needs will be supported through various means such as visual references, physical resources and Makaton.
Every Friday, the children will engage in outdoor learning activities. Children will be required to wear an appropriate outdoor, waterproof coat and to bring a pair of wellington boots or old trainers that they can keep in school for these sessions.
PE will take place every Thursday. PE kits shall be kept in school until the end of each term. We recommend that you include both indoor and outdoor footwear for child, along with a tracksuit for the colder months.
At Palmers Cross, we encourage the children to become independent learners so please ensure that all clothes, shoes and bags have your child’s name on.
We operate an open-door policy, so please do not hesitate to speak to myself, Mrs Harper, if you have any questions or messages, I will be available at the classroom doors at 8:30am and end of school 3:15pm.
We are looking forward to a fun filled year of learning.
Mrs Harper
Class 8 Teacher
