Weekly Bulletin: Friday 10th October 2025
Dear Parents, Carers & Families,
The focus of our travels this week has been phonics and early reading lessons. We observed some excellent learning happening across EYFS and Key Stage 1 and were very impressed with the progress that all of our students are making. Well done to you all!
This week, in assembly, we have been exploring how stereotypes can limit and hamper achievements. We examined how we are all individuals and how our uniqueness leads to strength and talents. You can support your child with these ideas by considering the following question, video and slides.

Best wishes,

Attendance
The foundations of learning are laid in the Primary years of schooling and so Whitehill Primary School is committed to making sure that our children do not miss out on the education and care that we offer. Regular attendance is critical if our pupils are to be happy, successful and benefit from the opportunities presented to them now and in the future.
Good attendance is fundamental to a successful and fulfilling school experience. We actively promote 100% attendance for all our pupils and we use a variety of rewards and incentives to promote good attendance and punctuality. Awards are group focused rather than given to individuals as we recognise that our students cannot help being absent for medical reasons.
