Dear Parents / Carers,
We would very much like to invite you to our Year 2 Open Day at Ripley Junior School on Wednesday 22nd October 2025. During the day 2-3pm, you will have the opportunity to visit classrooms, meet with members of staff and see our lovely children at work. If visiting after school 4-5.30pm, you will be able to have a look around school and speak with staff about how we work and hear what some of our current pupils think about attending our school.
We are very proud of our community at RJS and the education we provide for our children. We are looking forward to sharing our school with you and hope you will experience this when you visit. During the day there will be opportunities to see the different activities which take place at the school. These will include:
•Different lessons being taught to our children in different year groups (afternoon tour only)
•Samples of the children’s work
•Information about our curriculum and about our new initiatives that are raising the profile of outstanding attitudes for learning
•Information about Thrive, Nurture groups, Lego therapy, Forest Schools, Learning Mentors, extra-curricular clubs, Positive Play and our school dinners
