Elf
Welcome to Elf Class!
Dear parents and carers,
Welcome to the summer term, we hope you have enjoyed a lovely half-term break.
This half term our topic is called Marvellous Minibeasts. Each week we will be learning about a different insect, learning new stories and becoming minibeast detectives!
Reminders:
- Snack money is 10p per session. This is to be handed in to a member of staff in Elf Class in a named envelope. This also covers the cost of ingredients for baking.
- All lunch club money must be in a named envelope as we send this directly to the school office.
- Make sure all clothing is named.
- Please make sure your child has a bag of spare clothes on their peg.
- As we are now in the summer term please ensure your child has a sun hat and sun cream (if you have consented for us to apply it).
- Please ensure that water bottles only contain water.
Thank you for your support,
Miss Chappell, Mrs Spencer and Mrs Foulkes

Our Classroom
Welcome to the first half term of this new school year. It’s lovely to see our ‘old’ elves back with us again and we are delighted to also be welcoming many new families. We know that it’s going to be another fantastic year in Elf Class!
Our topic for this half term, will be ‘Beside The Sea’. We have lots of fun activities planned. The attached ‘overview’ will give you an idea of some of the things we will be learning about.
We go outside in all weathers! Please make sure your child has an appropriate coat and a pair of wellies on their peg so that we can enjoy playing outside in rain, snow and hail!
We hope that you will enjoy receiving (via email) the observations and photos of your child playing and learning in Elf Class. If, after the first few weeks, you haven’t received any of these or are having any problem viewing them, please let us know.
Reminders:
- Lunch club is for children attending for full days and costs £2 per day. This is payable directly to the school office.
- If your child is going to be having a school dinner, please let one of us know when you arrive in the morning.
- Please ensure all clothing is named, and that your child has a bag of spare clothes on their peg at all times.
- Snack money is 10p per session (£1 per week for full time children) – payable weekly or termly, directly to Elf Class, please in a named envelope.
