Tea and Toast Morning

Parents and carers are invited to join us for another Tea and Toast morning at 9am on Wednesday 29th November in the Community Classroom.

This is an opportunity to pop in and chat with us about how we can work together to further improve the school. This time our Family Support Workers will also be there to talk informally about their role and how they work alongside families. You will also get a sneak preview of our proposed new school report format to comment on.

Please come along. Everyone is welcome.

MyMaths is available from home!

We have just renewed our subscription to MyMaths which is an interactive online teaching and home learning resource aligned to the National Curriculum. It is used in school for  teaching, practising and assessing children’s maths performance. It is also available from home to help parents help their children and enable you to see how they are progressing.

All pupils from year 1 to year 6 will be bringing home a letter which contains their log-in details for the website : www.mymaths.co.uk

Please make the most of this excellent resource!

Is your child entitled to pupil premium?

We believe that every student at Wormley Primary should have the opportunity to achieve the best possible start to life. We are committed to breaking down any barriers to outstanding achievement and attainment.

The pupil premium is a sum of money given to schools each year by the Government to raise the achievement of disadvantaged pupils from reception to year 11. Funding is for children from low-income families who have been eligible for free school meals at any point in the last six years (FSM ‘Ever 6’) or are looked after children or from families with parents in the Armed Forces. If you think your child may be eligible for this additional funding then let us know or visit:

https://www.hertfordshire.gov.uk/services/schools-and-education/at-school/free-school-meals/free-school-meals.aspx

Years 3 – 6: Use the above link to check eligibility and apply for pupil premium

Reception, Year 1 or 2: Although your child will automatically receive universal free school meals, you should still register on the above link as, if eligible, the school could get extra money to support your child

Pre-school & Nursery: Please speak  to the school directly

Pupils lead collective worship

Earlier this week, our new Year 6 worship team led a whole school assembly to teach about this month’s Christian value of commitment. They planned the assembly themselves with a clear message about the importance of being committed to everything we do. With some drama, poetry, prayer and singing they led a fabulous assembly. Well done!
