A huge well done to all of Challenger Class, who competed in their first Netball competition at the GMH sports facility. The competition was tough, but everybody gave their best effort and one of the teams were just one point away from reaching the finals!!

 

 

Well done for working so hard, Challenger Class. You should be very proud of your efforts.

 

 

This week Year 2 have been making bread! We have been learning about the Great Fire of London and we know it started at a bakery. We followed a recipe and we will be writing one of our own recipes. Take a look at all the fun we had!

Dear Year 6 parents,

Please see the initial PGL letter attached, which was sent out last year, detailing information about the upcoming trip (in case you need to refer back to it).

Any further questions, please do not hesitate to ask one of us at the end of any school day.

Kind regards,

Ms Maitland and Ms Montague

In Year 2 we have been discussing what bullying is and the different ways people can be bullied. We made anti-bullying posters and shared some kind words with our peers. Take a look!

Hello!

Your child needs to recognise them on sight and will be reading a book which has some of these sounds in it so they can practice segmenting and blending words in a book.

This week we are learning all about the numbers 8 and 9. How many ways can you make the numbers 8 and 9?
Topic
The story of the week is The Jolly Christmas Postman. The children are making cards and writing letters.
We are continuing to practice the Nativity. I hope you have got your ticket to come and see the show on Wednesday next week.
Our class parties will be on Thursday 16th December – please provide an item of food or drink for the children to share.
Thank you for your continued support
