We are challenging Year 6 to use the above suggested revision timetable at home. This supports them in the run up to SATs as we only have 9 school weeks left before them! Each week, children will be set two pages of work both in their maths and their english revision booklets. This work needs to be brought into school each week. If children engage in the revision each week, they can exchange their homework on the final week of this term for an Easter egg.

Please remember all children who engage in home learning and the booster sessions will have their names put into the draw to win a Jelly Cat and an American sweet hamper!

We are so proud of you all and how hard you are working!

World Book Day 2024

22nd February 2024Mrs Graves

We are looking forward to celebrating World Book Day on Thursday 7th March.

It would be lovely to see the children dressed up as their favourite book character, but please don’t feel like you have to rush out and buy a costume!

Ā£1 Book Vouchers will be given to children on the day which can be spent in most supermarkets and book shops, but we do also have a Book Fayre coming into school the following week, and children can put their voucher towards the cost of a book at that event – more details to follow soon.

More information can be found on https://www.worldbookday.com

In our time to read crew this week, we launched a very exciting competition. The children had to select one of nine story openers to read out loud in preparation of the Danny read aloud competition! A selection of finalists will have the opportunity to read their opener at Danum library in the final.- how exciting!
