Reading
We love reading and would like children to read at home as much as possible. Pupils are expected to bring their reading record in their school bag daily and these will be checked weekly. Please remember that the expectation is for children to be reading at least 4 times a week at home and have this signed within their reading record. New reading records can be purchased for £1.

Routines
The doors to Juniper will open at 8:40am and finish the day at 3:10am. You will be greeted by Mrs Hardy, Miss Stewart or Miss Allen. Children will sanitise their hands as they enter the building.
Please ensure your child comes to school with enough layers to stay warm as the classroom must be well ventilated. We also recommend having a coat in school every day as children will be going outside daily.
