E-Safety
It is vital that you and your child understand
how to be safe on the internet.
All social media sites (Facebook, Instagram
etc) have age restrictions on them and children should not use these unsupervised.

Voluntary Contributions:
At Lovelace our teachers go the extra mile to give children a wealth of
- experiences. We benefit from the current Mayor of London’s free transport
where possible but occasionally there are extra payments required to cover costs:
- Class fund (£5- £15 per term to be paid
through Scopay)
- Imperial War Museum (£3)
- Class of 2016 T-shirts (£12)
- End of year trip (£20 + spending money)
- Leaver’s Production Ticket (£2)
Without voluntary contributions, these events cannot go ahead

Get involved!
Children really value the support of the adults around them – you
are their inspiration and role models! Although family life is busy, please try and find time to give your child support and guidance. Be the person you want your child to be … This may involve:
helping with ideas, encouragement & praise
providing a distraction-free place to work
checking written work for spelling and punctuation
providing equipment and a quiet place to work
sharing and enjoying quality work
commenting on successes and/or any problems in a child’s home / school book. Please do check your child’s diary daily and sign in at the end of each week
attending parent / teacher evenings , VIP events, class assemblies & PFA events
continue to read to them / hear them read – share stories and news!

spelling strategies when learning spellings

your child’s learning in times tables
Miss Bryan will show you ways of supporting
