We are named after the American author Kate DiCamillo. She has written amazing books such as The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane, The Magician's Elephant and The Tiger Rising.

Our PE day is Friday (outdoor), so please make sure PE kits on this day. As a reminder jewellery and earrings are not to be worn in these lessons and hair needs to be tied back. PE kits are black or navy shorts and a plain top, either white or the previous house colours. For outdoor PE in the colder months we suggest the children wear jogging bottoms and have a jumper or sweatshirt. 

Swimming starts this term. We will be swimming on Monday and Wednesday. Please ensure your child has their swimming kit on these days. Swimming kits should be in school on a Monday and Wednesday. Children are required to wear a swimming hat for lessons (these are available to purchase from our school office). Swimwear should be one piece so no bikinis are permitted. 

Please encourage your child to read at home daily and then quiz them on what they have read. Using sentence starters of ‘why’, ’how’, ‘how do you know’ and ‘what makes you think that’. The children should also be practicing their times tables on TTRockstars. Their username and password is stuck in the front of their reading diaries!
