Welcome to a new year. We have had an exciting start with children coming back with a great attitude to their learning. We started our new term with some wacky or extreme reading. We had lots of fun taking these photographs. Our 'Food for Thought Project' got underway with a big harvest of courgettes, cucumbers, tomatoes, apples and plums. Adnams was very pleased with what we had grown for them!

Tuesday 13th September we look forward to Roald Dahl Day. We will be celebrating Rolad Dahl's 100th birthday with various activities based around his books. Class 4 will be doing some artwork based on his books that will be displayed around the school. The theme of the artwork will be based on our British Values along with the wonderful characters in Roald Dahl's books.

Home Learning

Friday 9^th September

Maths- This week we have been recapping over place value and ordering of numbers. For your home learning you have a sheet to complete with some questions for you to practice at home.

English-Our new topic this half term is Ancient Egypt and Ancient Greece. We have already started to find some facts out about these exciting times in history. This week I would like you to use your own knowledge and to research some more facts to help you create a facts file. You may find you want to complete your fact file on one of the countries or to do both on one page. It would be great if we could put these on display so make sure you have great presentation and your page is full of interesting facts.
