We had a great morning in year two, working together to try and win the crew quiz! We had questions about chocolate, book characters and even emojis! We all did brilliantly – but the winning crew was …. CREW GOODYER!

Crew Time Capsules
We have spent the morning getting to know each other and making a time capsule to open on our last day of year two.
Welcome Back
Good Morning everyone,
It’s one week until we get to open our doors and welcome you all back – we are really looking forward to it. We just wanted to clarify a few things to put your minds at rest.
Nursery parents – you have all already received a letter confirming your start dates and times as these days are slightly different to the rest of main school.
Reception and Key Stage One – you are starting back on Tuesday 30th August, for full days – our doors will be open at 8.40 until 8.50 – we will have staff around the first few days to point you in the right direction if you’re not sure (if you arrive after this time you will enter through the main entrance and will receive a late mark). The school day ends at 3.20 and you collect your child from the same door which you dropped them off.
Children will need to bring a clearly labelled water bottle, also could we please ask that jumpers are labelled too. Anything else they need, we will provide.
Finally, PE days will be confirmed by your class teacher during the first few days and you will be added to your new class dojo pages too during that first week.
We hope you’ve all had a lovely summer and are looking forward to coming back.
Crew Norton Infant School
Stay safe in the sun
Class 4 have discussed the ways to stay sun safe and created some wonderful posters.
Heat Warning
I am sure you are all aware that the Met Office has extended an amber extreme heat warning for Sunday 17 July, Monday 18 July and Tuesday 19 July, as temperatures will build this weekend and early next week for much of England and Wales.
As a school we will be following government guidance:
Avoiding outside play.
Reducing break times outside and eliminating them altogether if we feel the need when we assess the heat and amount of shade on the day.
Continuing to ventilate classrooms as much as possible including opening windows and doors earlier in the morning.
PE sessions will be cancelled on these days.
Children will constantly have the opportunity to fill water bottles.
We would ask you to support for the rest of the term by:
Children can wear light, loose fitting and comfortable clothing – no denim please.
Applying sun cream before children attend school and sending in sun cream to reapply should they need to.
Ensure children have sun hats.
Send children with water bottles.
Thank you for your co-operation,
Crew Norton ☀️

Norton by the Sea
** FAO Nursery and Reception Parents**
We would like to invite you to a celebration of learning for our Summer term expedition: What happens where the sea meets the shore?
Our Norton by the sea day will take place on Thursday 14th July. We would like to invite you to join us between 1.30pm and 3.20pm. During that time you and your child will be able to spend time with their friends and visit the hot dog, ice cream and sweet stalls. You can also take part in other activities such as face painting and bouncy castle fun for which there will be a small charge. We will also have paddling pools to splash in and you may even get chance to soak a teacher!
We have also been learning a couple of seaside themed songs to treat you with.
Please feel free to bring a picnic blanket, chairs or any snacks and soft drinks that you may wish to share with your friends and family.
We are looking forward to celebrating your child’s learning with you ☀️🏖
Moving up . . .
It’s been transition day today – we’ve had a great day getting to know each other.
We have played games, made things and got crafty. There have been lots of smiles, chatting and hard work.
Miss Tinker and I are already looking forward to next year 🌟

PS. We can’t wait to see your crew bag challenges in August! 📩
