LKS2 Times Tables Meeting

Thank you to those parents who were able to attend tonight’s meeting about the Year 4 Multiplication Check and how to support your child with time tables.

Here are the slides that contain the links to some of the suggested sites.

If you would like your child to come to the Year 3 and 4 Times Tables Booster Sessions on Wednesday mornings at 8:20am, please complete the Google form so we can pop them onto the register. They don’t have to attend every week, but it gives us an idea of numbers for the breakfast snacks we provide. Booster sessions will be starting next week on Wednesday 28th January. Please bring your child to reception.

Expert Visitor No.2!

Phil Sheppard kindly came into school to share his expertise as a local author and illustrator. He has written a children’s book all about Doncaster and he came to share how he went about creating the book. Phil shared his journey to becoming an author and answered lots of brilliant questions about his ‘Discover Doncaster’ book. Thanks, Phil!

Sweet stuff, science and super Rock Stars for 3G this week!

What a great hook week!

We started with chocolate tasting and then delved into the history of chocolate. We were introduced to the concept of Fairtrade and learnt about solids, liquids and gases with our expert visitor and scientist, Harry.

The week ended with our Rockstar day – kicking it off with the Rockathon times tables challenge. Everyone looked fantastic and had great fun on Times Tables Rockstars.

Looking forward to what comes next!

Look at our learning

Our first week back we have been busy freeing transport from the ice, exploring ice, being creative, practising our phonics and writing and being active within our learning. We have also enjoyed our PE sessions in the hall exploring different ways we move, climbing, jumping, balancing and dancing to the music.

Student Led Conferences in Years 3 and 4

Thank you to all parents and carers who have booked an SLC appointment so we can share the progress your children have made during the autumn term. Your children have been busy preparing for these and they look forward to sharing some of their amazing learning with you which they all feel so proud of.

If you haven’t yet booked, please scan the appropriate QR code for your child’s class from those below to do so.

Thank you for your continued support.

We wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

Thank you for coming to our Nativity this week and making some Christmas crafts; we really enjoyed our parents coming in to school to work with us. We have had lots of fun on our Christmas party day and we even got a visit from Santa! We would like to wish all our families a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

LKS2 Celebration

This year, we combined our Celebration of Learning with our Christmas Celebration, as the story of Christmas reinforces what we have been learning about people that need to leave their homes to find safety.

We started by sharing what we have learnt this term and then acted out the Nativity.

Well done to everyone involved – the acting and narrating was great and the singing really put us in the Christmas spirit!

Thank you parents and carers for all your support this term.

The LKS2 Crew would just like to take this opportunity to wish you a very merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
