Wingate Primary School

Welcome to Wingate Primary School

As a re-accredited UNICEF Gold Rights Respecting school, at Wingate Primary School we aim to provide a happy, friendly and caring atmosphere in which children feel secure and valued.

We place a great emphasis on promoting the Rights of the Child and encourage children to respect the rights of others. Our school has a happy and friendly atmosphere in which honesty, courtesy and consideration for others can flourish along with a high priority on ensuring that all children receive an education suited to their individual needs.

Let’s get physical!
Try some of these activities this week!
• Getting moving for at least three hours a day
• Walking up and down steps (one foot at a time, using the wall for support)
• Climbing, running, jumping and playing
• Catching a large ball (most of the time)

Friendships help children feel safe and happy at school.
Being with others, sharing and taking turns with toys, and talking to children about how they are feeling and why makes a big difference at school.
This week, talk about kind behaviours like sharing, turn-taking, and using friendly words. Practise saying “hello” or starting conversations in play – it builds confidence.

Getting Ready – Growing Independence!
Can your child:
• Take part in imaginative play (e.g. role play)?
• Draw, paint, colour and stick?
• Share story books with caregivers, look at pictures and talk about the characters?
• Explore the world around them (e.g. looking closely at the natural world or playing safely with objects at home)?
Sharing books at home builds language and imagination.
This week, cuddle up with a favourite story, talk about what might happen next, or retell it in your own words. Encourage your child to choose books and tell you the story using the pictures!

Can your child independently:
• Use cutlery (e.g. fork and spoon, chopsticks) and drink from an open cup?
• Spend time away from you, learning they can be looked after by caring adults?
This week, keep practising getting dressed and toileting independently, and begin to think about using cutlery independently

Getting Ready – Growing Independence!
Can your child independently:
• Put on / take off their coat and shoes?
• Get dressed with little help, e.g. after using the toilet or doing PE?
Mastering simple skills build confidence and make school feel less overwhelming.
This week, practise getting dressed together – turning clothes the right way round is a great challenge!
