✏️ Supporting handwriting at home with Letter-join
As part of our ongoing support for transcription and handwriting skills, we use Letter-join in school to help children develop neat, fluent, and confident writing.
Letter-join is an online handwriting programme with fun animations, practice sheets, and interactive activities that teach correct letter formation, joins, and spelling patterns in a clear, step-by-step way.
We use Letter-join regularly during form time, and teachers also reinforce these skills in English lessons, so the children become consistent and confident writers.
💻 You can access Letter-join at home too!
Simply visit: www.letterjoin.co.uk
Log in using your child’s school username and password (this was sent in a recent letter) then join their class.
A few minutes of practice each week can make a big difference — thank you for supporting your child’s handwriting at home! ... See MoreSee Less

💛 More Ways to Support Children’s Mental Health this week and beyond!
Children’s Mental Health Week reminds us that emotional wellbeing matters every day, not just this week. Here are some practical, everyday tips from Barracudas to help children feel supported, seen and connected:
✨ Build a sense of belonging — ask meaningful questions like “Who made you smile today?” and celebrate small wins.
💬 Talk about feelings gently — name emotions together and show it’s okay to feel all kinds of things.
🛏️ Create supportive routines — regular sleep times, meals and relaxed family moments give security.
🏃♂️ Encourage movement — outdoor play, dancing or bike rides can lift mood and reduce stress.
📵 Balance the digital world together — set screen‑free wind‑down times and talk about online experiences.
🤝 Know when to ask for help — if worries persist, reach out to a GP or school wellbeing lead early.
Supporting wellbeing starts with being present, curious and kind — and every conversation counts. 💚
