Friday update 12.1.24

Welcome back! I hope everyone had a lovely Christmas break and I wish you all a Happy New Year.

​We've been back in school for a week and a half now and we've already achieved a lot! This week, we've undertaken some practise SATs tests. There have been some great improvements since our first tests in September so well done. From now on, we will start regular and targeted revision in school and I will be setting revision topics to complete as homework to complement this at home. Later this month, I am holding a SATs meeting which will provide lots more information about the tests, what we're doing in school and how you can support your children at home.

We are underway with our new topics in all our curriculum areas. In English, we're reading Grimm fairytales and the children are really enjoying these. We will be writing our own fairytales in the coming weeks. In Maths, we've started a new unit all about ratio. In Science, we are learning about Heat. In History, we're learning all about American Civil Rights and the fight to end discrimination. Lots more to come next week!
