Happy New Year!
Welcome back to school!
We are now a third of the way through the school year! Last term was lots of fun and extremely busy!
As in the Autumn term, Miss Hession will be supporting Class 2, during the morning on Mondays and Mrs Giles will support us on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday morning!
As the weather becomes colder, please ensure that children have a coat, hat and gloves for playtimes. We would be grateful if these items are all labelled. Children should also bring in a named water bottle to school.
Please look at our curriculum map to see what we will be learning this half term. You will also find a copy of our homework grid below.
A weekly homework guide will be continued to be uploaded to teams every Friday with an example of what we have been learning in maths and the methods that we have been using in school.
If you have any questions, please do not heisitate to contact us.
Mrs Freire-Norman, Mrs Giles and Miss Hession
Below are some really useful, interactive games that the children can access at home with your support.
