Review Of The Week

This week, the children have been engaged in a variety of exciting learning activities. Year 2 explored photography in ICT, learning how to use technology to take and edit photos. Year 1 focused on geography, locating Uganda on a map of Africa, while Early Years children worked on understanding one more and one less than a number up to ten. Additionally, the children are being assessed for new phonics groups, and we are pleased to see excellent progress in their ability to identify sounds and read words. It's been a week of great learning and development across all year groups!

No Outsiders, Everyone Welcome

Next week in school we will be sharing our new 'No Outsiders' book " The Family book" by Todd Parr. "The Family Book" offers a perfect way to help children understand and appreciate the diversity in family structures and to learn about celebrating/recognising our differences. As a school we will be creating artwork together to celebrate differences whilst embracing our British value of Mutual respect.

Attendance

Attendance is a priority concern in our duty to ‘safeguard’ children. We believe that children can reach their full potential only by receiving full-time education through regular attendance.  

Our target 

At FHIS we want to achieve attendance for all pupils of 96% or greater. This is a minimum of an additional 62 hours of learning achieved compared to that of 90% attendance.   

3rd February - 7th February 

Chestnut – 97%

Sycamore – 92%

Ash – 98%

Maple – 97%

Oak – 91%

Willow – 97%

Whole school – 95%
