A truly excellent turn out for Family Phonics today! Y1's grown-ups spent the morning getting to grips with how we teach phonics to our children - together we had fun playing phonics games, reinforcing graphemes and phonemes, as well as providing tips to support phonetic development at home.

Here are some of our grown up's testimonials:

“Enthusiasm and passion of staff rubs off on children and really makes learning fun!”

“Massive thanks to Miss Jenkinson and the staff – phonics has really helped me understand how the children attack phonics – Thank you!”

“Useful towards guiding learning at home. My child enjoys phonics and has made obvious progress. His younger sister, who has come along today, is already showing interest.”
