Reminders -
Our Year group trip to Eureka children's science museum is on 26th March 2025
Book bags should come to school with the children everyday.
Please write in your child's reading record so that we can share their amazing progress.
Tuesday - This is our Library day. Please ensure that the children bring their books every Tuesday so that they can exchange it for a new book. If the children have read their books before our scheduled day, please feel free to send it back and they can change their book earlier.
Thursday AM - The children will have P.E lessons. The children will need a PE kit ( white t-shirt, shorts/leggings/joggers, and sensible pumps or trainers). It is very important that ALL children have the correct P.E kit.
Please ensure that all their clothing has a name clearly written. It is very hard to return items without a name to the right child. SEE THE P.E KIT PICTURE BELOW FOR GUIDANCE.
Thursday - The children will now bring the spellings home on Thursday to learn and be tested the following Thursday.

At Westmoor Primary School we see reading as a key enabler for all your child's learning. Children who can decode and read words fluently, and with understanding, are at an advantage when it comes to their future learning. Reading opens all doors to access learning and promote independence in all subject areas. Please see below some of the resources used in the classroom for you to use at home.
1. The Parent Information Guide
2. Sound mats 1 & 2
3. The phonic flashcards used set 1 & 2
4. Word mats
The Year 1 Phonic screening will take place in June 2025
Below are some example papers that you can practise at home.
More will be added later.
