Kestrels are taught by Mrs. Ellie May Hulme. On Thursday mornings Miss Jo Allen teaches the class whilst Mrs. Hulme has her PPA (Planning, Preparation and Assessment) time.
This term we have 17 Year 4 children and 12 Year 3 children in it, we are a Year 3/4 mixed class.
In Kestrels we have an exciting term ahead. The curriculum for this year has been
carefully selected to ensure children gather the knowledge and skills they
need. The details of our curriculum can
be found on our curriculum newsletter.
The three school rules and the Pirton 6R’s are embedded within our
class. Children who show these behaviours
are celebrated and, on a Friday, we have a celebration assembly to share some
of these successes.
Please keep an eye on our Class blog to find out more about our journey in Kestrels.
Key Information
Home learning and spellings come home on Thursdays and
should be returned by the next Tuesday.
Tuesdays and Fridays are our PE Days, so
please make sure your child’s kit is in school on these days.
Children should bring a water bottle to school every day and can
bring a healthy snack with them for breaktime.
