    Hello Puffin families

    We hope that you've all had a super week and that the children are raring to go when they come back to class tomorrow!

    We just wanted to share with you our curriculum map for next half-term where you'll see that we have lots of fun activities planned around our topic of 'growing'.

    We look forward to seeing you all tomorrow and hearing about your child's holiday adventures.

  • Christmas Carol Concert Arrangements

    Published 04/12/23, by Sarah Mellor

    Hello Puffin parents!

    Please find attached a letter explaining the arrangements for this year's Crossdale Christmas carol concert.  Hopefully, lots of the children will be able to make the evening performances with the adjusted timings to suit their bedtimes!

    On another note, could I please ask that children's 'Roots to Reading' books are kept in their book bags with their reading books please.  We aim to change reading books every Wednesday where we will swap their existing books with a new one.  

    Many thanks

  • Welcome back Puffins

    Published 05/11/23, by Sarah Mellor

    Hello Puffin families

    I hope that you've all had a fun-filled couple of weeks as well as some time for the children's batteries to recharge!

    I just wanted to share with you our curriculum map for next half-term (see attachment) and to remind you of the reading meeting that starts at 5pm in the hall tomorrow.  We'll have a short presentation and time for you to have a look at some of the resources your child will be using, followed by time to ask any questions regarding reading in Reception. Hopefully you'll be able to make it, but if you can't, I will also e-mail the presentation after the meeting.

    We look forward to seeing you all tomorrow and hearing about your child's holiday adventures.

    Kind regards

    Mrs Mellor, Mrs Payne and Miss Holder
