We were recently pleased to welcome the families of the children who will be joining us in September 2025 for a 'new starters' information evening. For anyone who missed it, or if would like a reminder, you can rewatch the video we shared.
You can click it to watch full screen.
These videos have sound, please unmute.
Videos can be watched in full screen, paused, or rewound - please hover over the video to see controls.
We recently invited parents to attend a session in school to gain an understanding of how we teach Phonics. We understand that it's not always easy for parents to attend these sessions, so we have created a video for those who couldn't join us to watch at home.
We would be very grateful if you'd find 12 minutes in your day to watch this, as it will really help you to understand the ways we teach phonics, reading and spelling. It has probably changed since you were at school, so knowing how we are learning means you can help your child/ren at home too.
Thank you so much for your support.
Documents, news and links
Throughout the year we will update your letters, documents and useful links on this page for you to refer back to. The topic webs are updated termly so you can get a good overview of what we'll be learning.
Remember to check the Home Connect page too, as that's where you'll find whole-school news, events and key dates.
Click on the KIRFs logo for the most recent facts for your child/ren.
Have you heard about The Withycombe 60?
It's 60 brilliant things to do while at our school.
Each year group has a list of interesting activities to work towards through the year, with each class having their own 'postcard' to write down when they complete their activities.
We'll add some photos on this page as we go along!
