Dear Parents and Carers,
In Maths we have been continuing to look at measuring capacity and volume.
In RE we have been learning about Holy Week.
There will again not be writing Home Learning this week as there are no skills that the children are currently consolidating but I would encourage you to practice the children’s phonics sounds with them as the phonics screening is coming up soon.
There is also Maths and Spelling Home Learning on EdShed.
I hope you have a lovely weekend!

We will be having our trip to the South London Botanical Institute on Tuesday, if we could have two parents or family members to help us that would be amazing.

Hello Parents and Carers
We have officially made it half way through the year! The children have made such amazing progress and all deserve a good rest!
This half-term, I have assigned Maths Home learning so that the children can become familiar with the following terms content to give them a bit of a head start!
Also there is a project attached, these don’t have to be elaborate, just as long as the children have do most of the creating.
I would also like to say a massive thank you to those parents that were able to come to our class assembly, the children done so well and your participation meant so much to them all!
I hope you have a lovely half term!
