Welcome to Griffin Class!

We are so excited to welcome you to Griffin Class this year! In our classroom, we work hard, aim high, and always make sure to have lots of fun along the way. Every day is a chance to learn something new, explore our creativity, and challenge ourselves to be the best we can be.

To help keep parents and carers updated, we use Class Dojo to share important information, celebrate achievements, and keep everyone connected with what’s happening in class.

We can’t wait to see all the amazing things our Griffin Class will achieve this year!

School Uniform

At Gateford Park, the uniform consists of white polo shirt (with or without logo), black or grey skirt/pinafore or trousers, blue gingham dresses, blue sweater or cardigan (ideally with logo). Children should wear black school shoes with school uniform, NOT trainers. Jewellery should be kept to an absolute minimum for safety reasons and because valuable items can be easily lost. Please no necklaces, bracelets, rings, dangly earrings.

For PE, please ensure that your child has a plain white t-shirt (with or without logo) and plain black or navy blue shorts/joggers/leggings, with appropriate footwear (trainers or plimsoles). We have spare shorts and t-shirts in school for those who forget or who come to school in the incorrect kit. No jewellery at all should be worn for PE. Our PE days will be Monday, please send your child in full PE kit on this day. We also have swimming, which will be on a Wednesday morning. This will start on the 10^th September and finish on the 11^th February.

Our topics for this year are:

Earth and Space
