To Parent/Guardian of child in Year 5 in September 2022
 
Dear Parents/Guardians,

We have provisionally booked a 4-night residential visit to the Windmill Hill near Hailsham, Sussex from
Monday 16th October – Friday 20th October 2023. The visit includes a full programme of activities and is similar to those we have run in the past. The group will be accompanied by teaching staff from the school and fully qualified instructors at the centre supervise each activity. Whilst the trip is not essential for curriculum purposes, it provides an excellent opportunity for children to extend their learning and to refine their personal and social skills. A meeting for parents giving detailed arrangements will be held nearer the time.
 
The Year 6 residential trip is at beginning of the year to allow children to bond with their new teacher ready for the remainder of Year 6.  It is also an opportunity for teachers to identify different strengths in children that we can build on throughout the year.
 
In order to help organise and plan this trip in advance, we would need to get an idea of the numbers of pupils who would like to attend. Therefore, for the visit to take place a payment of £483.00 per child is required. A non-refundable deposit of £65.00 must be paid via School Money in order to secure a place by 6th September 2022. Please email office@ivjs.school if you are having any issues with your School Money account.
 
The full cost must be paid by monthly instalments via School Money by 10th July 2023, although we would appreciate it if payments could be made as early as possible. Cash and cheques will be accepted.  Cheques should be made payable to Buckinghamshire Council Receipts Account. If you receive Income Support, Job Seekers Allowance or Child Tax Credit (not entitled to Working Tax Credit and with an income below £16040pa) please feel free to contact us if there are any difficulties involving the cost.
 
Only a limited number of places are available and we ask that deposits are made no later than 6th September 2022 to avoid disappointment.
 
Payments:  £483 total
Non-refundable Deposit of £65 by 06/09/2022
11 regular monthly payments of £38 starting on 10/9/22 until 10/7/23 via School Money to secure my child’s place on the trip
 
Yours sincerely,
 
Mr P Clifford

Dear Parents/ Guardians,

Next week is going to be extremely hot! 

To help keep the children safe we would encourage children to wear non-uniform to enable them to wear loose, light coloured clothing that will help keep them as cool as possible. Appropriate clothing must be worn in school, for example no crop tops!

On Monday the weather is going to gradually get very warm by the afternoon.  To help keep the children safe we are going to close the school at 1pm.   Please note if you are unable to collect your child at this time please email office@ivjs.school this afternoon and we will make arrangements to look after them until 3.15pm on Monday.

Dear Parents/ Guardians of Year 5,

​​Over Summer term 2, our Science lessons are based on the topic ‘Animals and humans’. Throughout this topic, children learn about the changes that human beings experience as they develop to old age. Children will learn about the life cycle of a human being. They will investigate the development of babies and compare the gestation period of humans and other animals. They will learn about the changes experienced during puberty and why these occur.
The PSHE curriculum for Summer term 2 focuses on the topic ‘changing me’. During this topic, children will learn about their own self-image and how their body image fits into that. They will also learn about how a girls / boys body changes during puberty and understand the importance of looking after yourself physically and emotionally.
Below shows the outline of the lessons that will be covered and the vocabulary used.

As these are part of the National Curriculum all children are expected to take part in these lessons. If you do have any questions or worries, please speak to a member of staff.
Kindest regards,
 
Mrs Chapman-Allen

Please see the letter below regarding the upcoming School Nurse Team visit to Year 6 on Wednesday 30th March. Please note, if you DO NOT want your child to take part or be measured, please follow the instructions in the letter below.
