Hi,
The children have enjoyed Christmas dinner and jumper day and even the sunshine managed to make an appearance!
UKS2 have complete reading, writing and maths assessments this week. It has been lovely to see the progress the children have made since September.
The children are looking forward to sharing their 'A Very Victorian Christmas' assembly to parents/carers next Wednesday. Just a reminder that children need to wear the Victorian clothes they wore on the Armley Mills trip on Wednesday morning. They can bring a change of clothes with them.
Have a lovely weekend!

Hi,
Lots of things going on in school!
UKS2 have been busy practising their singing ahead of the 'A Very Victorian Christmas' assembly. Words for the songs have been sent home to learn. To add to the authenticity of our assembly please can children wear the Victorian clothes they wore for the Armley Mills Trip. On Wednesday 17th December the children can come to school in these clothes and bring their school uniform to change into afterwards.
Lots of fraction work is taking place in UKS2. This will be continuing until the end of the term. The children have also been busy with their biographical writing and have learned lots about the life of Thomas Barnardo.
Another hectic week ahead......

Hi,
A shorter but, as always, a busy week.
Ash Tree Class have started to learn about the features of biographical writing and learning about the life of the famous Victorian, Thomas Barnardo.
The class also enjoyed learning about crime and punishment in this era.
In maths, my group have completed one of the units on multiplication and division and have started work on fractions which will continue for the rest of this term.
As part of the preparation for the Victorian Christmas Assembly it has been funny to hear some of the Victorian jokes - keep them coming in.
Enjoy the longer weekend
