Reminders

• Every morning the children engage in a Wake-Up task. Please ensure your child arrives promptly to school so that they do not miss out on their start to the day.  These activities begin from 8.35am.
• Please ensure your child comes to school in the correct uniform that is labelled, a bag for their belongings, labelled home-packed lunch if they are not ordering a school meal and a labelled water bottle.
• Children need to bring their own pencil case with the listed equipment, which can be bought from the school office if necessary - please see information leaflet below.
• Please ensure the children bring their school diary to school every day and you sign this on a weekly basis.  
• Children with long hair need their hair tied up - please bring spare hair ties to school.
• No hooped earrings and earrings must be removed or covered for PE lessons.
• Snacks for playtime should be healthy!
• Handwriting pens should be blue (no biros please)
• Please check your child's glue regularly.
• Please sharpen pencils at home to save learning time in lessons.

PE Lessons

• Simmonds have PE on Thursdays and Fridays
