Dear Parents 

To celebrate the end of your child learning an instrument in school we would like to invite them to join Dudley Performing Arts Festival in the Park performance, where you will be able to invite friends and family to watch them free of charge. 

·        Where: Mary Stevens Park, Stourbridge 

·        When: Sunday 5^th July 2026 

·        Time: Between 1pm – 4pm (exact times published soon)

All music will be taught in their weekly school lessons or choir rehearsals with a massed rehearsal at Cable Plaza (address below) a few days before the park event.  

There is no charge to take part; this project is open to anyone who has been having whole class instrumental, whole class singing lessons or is a member of a school choir. If they don’t bring an instrument home every week don’t worry, your child can still take part, and we will sort the instruments.

1.     Enrol your child using the link below

In class we have created a “celebrating the arts” display. Children are invited to bring in photos of them while singing, acting, dancing or any art they are proud of that can be photo copied and put on display if they would like it to be displayed!

IMPORTANT- RSHE CURRICULUM

The Life to the Full programme is based on the structure of ‘A Model Catholic RSE Curriculum’ by the Catholic Education Service. This model curriculum was highlighted as a work of good practice by the Department of Education so we therefore have confidence that the programme will be fit for purpose in supporting the growth and development of your child. 

Life to the Full is much more than a series of lessons. It is an entire platform of creative resources that will engage, inform and inspire our children and, indeed, you as parents. This includes interactive video content, story-based activities, employing a wide range of teaching tools, original worship music and an accompanying programme of classroom prayers. 

In addition, there will be an online parent platform so that you, as parent and carers, can engage with the teaching and deepen the experience for your child. 

To access the online parent platform please visit: www.tentenresources.co.uk/parent-portal 

As part of our subscription to "Life to the Full", all parents will be able to access the Online Parent Portal with the following login credentials:

Life to the Full is intended to be partnership between home, school and church. We know that you already do a fantastic job and we see our new programme, Life to the Full, as a means to further develop, support and enrich the partnership between home, school and church so that your child is fully supported. 

This half term we will be starting to go through Module 1 Unit 2. These are the same lessons that children covered in Y3 however lesson activities will change and children will be approaching these topics with another year of maturity.

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask. 

Violins

Your child has now bought home a violin to practise during the week. This needs to be returned every Friday for their lesson Friday afternoon. Thank you 

Reading Books

Your child now has a school reading book. Please ensure you are regularly hearing your child read and please remember to sign their diaries. 
Thank you for your support!
