Lighthouse
Welcome to Lighthouse!
Important Information
PE
This half term, PE will be held twice a week however it is suggested that PE kits stay in school all week as other activities may crop up. Children will need a change of shoes for PE, either trainers or plimsolls. PE days for each campus are Wednesdays and Fridays.
Forest School
Lighthouse will have Forest School on Thursdays. Please ensure the children have a change of clothes with them and wellies. We suggest that wellies stay in school for the week as we also use them for outdoor learning.
Home Learning
Reading
Your children will bring home a phonetically decodable reading book that is matched to the phase of phonics your child is learning. Please read with your child as often as possible at home and record in their home school book. These are checked daily. Please aim to read with your child at least 4 times over the course of a week.
Phonics
At Endeavour we follow the ELS (Essential Letters and Sounds) phonics programme and our reading books have fidelity to this scheme.
Here are the links to videos that help you to pronounce each sound for each phase

Please do speak to us if you have any queries or concerns. It can be a little tricky to speak on the door so it is advisable to write a note in your child’s home school diary or book an appointment though the office. Please be reminded that your child’s class teacher is your first point of contact.
