Due to the closure of Sherpa Breakfast Club, Yewtree will be running a breakfast club every morning from Monday 30th November until the end of term , 18th December. Children should arrive at 7.30am if possible, but will not be allowed in after 8am.
This will be available to children from Reception to Y6 and will cost £3.75 per session per child, payable in advance via the School Gateway. Places are limited to 20 so will be on a first come, first served basis. Please make payments and email the school office by 3pmthe day before you wish your child to attend, admin@yewtree.herts.sch.uk.
Children should be accompanied by an adult and wait at the entrance to the KS2 building until a member of staff collects them.

Cross Country in School Next Week
Thu 12 Nov 2020Dear Parents/Carers
The children will be taking part in Cross Country running next week during their PE lessons.
They may get a bit muddy, so we are asking for a change of uniform and shoes to be brought to school. (This should be in a named carrier bag, so that items of clothing do not get mislaid).
Have a great day.

Year 1 - Teach Your Monster to Read
Thu 12 Nov 2020Dear Year One Parents,
Miss Pike and Mrs Hollins are very excited to share Teach your Monster to Read with the children. Each child now has a login and password (found on/in the reading records) and you can access the website at here or use the app.
Keep an eye on the school FB page as we share every time the app is free.
The children can earn certificates which will be printed regularly at school and shared in our class celebration assemblies.
We look forward to learning and sharing together.

Phase one includes the installation of the safe astro turf flooring, spider climber, tunnel hill, mud kitchen, sand pit with mark making boards and moveable stools and boards.
We are super excited for our new outdoor learning environment and this will really help us to develop our physical skills outdoors.

Thank You - 02.11.2020
Mon 02 Nov 2020Dear Parents and Carers,
I just wanted to say thank you for wearing your masks this morning; it is lovely to see the Yewtree family pulling together to ensure that we all stay safe.
I am meeting with my senior team this afternoon to review afternoon collection arrangements with any changes implemented for Thursday 5th November - these will of course be communicated to you in advance.
Having read the initial information published, childcare arrangements such as Sherpa (breakfast club and after school club) will be able to operate along with the football clubs that operate directly after school as they offer a childcare service. As always these arrangements are subject to change based upon information provided by DfE and the Government.
I am aware that parents have responded to my message on Saturday on facebook. Unfortunately I do not have access to that so as previously communicated please email me directly head@yewtree.herts.sch.uk. Thank you to those parents who did email me over the weekend - I have responded to you all.
Wishing you all a lovely Monday
Kind regards
Tracy Prickett
