  • KFJS This Week

    Mon 22 Sep 2014

    We'll be thinking about 2 of our core values, care and enjoyment! It's so important that we get the right mix.

     

    In our assembly on Monday, Mr Applegate and Mrs Vickery will be talking about "A day in the life of a young carer", and we'll be sharing details of how we look after our young carers.

     

    Gary Bastin is sharing with us in our Wednesday visitor assembly. Who knows what fun and thoughts he will bring to us?!

    On Friday, don't miss our Maths Event for Parents- 9am for 30mins. Refreshments provided. More information coming out tomorrow.

     

    Have a great week

  • Thank you for the books! Please keep them coming in!

    Fri 19 Sep 2014

    Thank you to everyone who has donated old (but quality!) books from home. We are really grateful

    Please do keep sending in any from home.

  • Do you have any spare books at home?

    Sun 14 Sep 2014
    Would you like to make more space at home by donating the books to our school?!

     

    We’re always trying to give our children opportunities to read a variety of books. If you’ve got any reading books that you’ve finished with, we’d love to have them. Just bring them in. They can be fiction or non-fiction. We only ask that they are of a good condition, and of an appropriate nature for children. Thank you so much!

  • KFJS this week

    Sun 14 Sep 2014

    Our theme this week is 'care', which can mean many things. We can care for others. We can take care of ourselves. We can be careful so we don't get hurt. We can also take care so as not to make a mistake. We'll be exploring these ideas this week.

     

    Monday – Year 5 are off to London to the Natural History Museum and Science Museum! Mr Applegate leads our assembly. Join Mr Hanson for the morning mile on the field.

    Tuesday – Year 3 go to the Build-A-Bear 'factory', and also to Eastrop Park Visit. We have our singing assembly after lunch.

    Wednesday – At 1:45, there is the CBEC roadshow assembly, for those interested in going to Cranbourne in Year 7. Parents welcome!

    Friday – Parents Open Forum @ 9am for 30 mins. A chance to ask Mr Applegate questions about KFJS. Refreshments served! Celebration assembly at 1pm.

    Have a great week

    Please note that the parents information session all about reading is on Wednesday 10th September (this Wednesday!), not Thursday 11th.
  • Parents information session all about reading- 10th Sept

    Thu 04 Sep 2014

    Do you sometimes wonder how you can help your child read more confidently?

    Come along to our reading and phonics information session on:

    Wednesday 10th September at 9.05 am until 9.30am

    We will be serving tasty pastries and cakes along with a healthy dose of phonics (sounds that we all use to make words)!

    The session will be informative and provide you an opportunity to look at our reading resources.  We will explain our use of Read Write Inc in school and outline how we aim to make every child an independent reader.

    This is open for all parents no matter what Year your child is in.  Pre-school siblings are as always very welcome to come along to this informal session.

    We look forward to seeing you then!
