HAPPY NEW YEAR

Welcome back and we wish you all a happy and healthy new year.

Last term the children had a productive and hard working term and we hope the children will continue to work hard this term. Many of you worked and supported your child with their work at home so thank you to all of those parents that did, it really makes a difference to their progress.

This term they will be doing lots of work in History and Art on the EGYPTIANS and in Science they will be spending the next 6 weeks studying the EARTH, SUN, MOON & PLANETS. Taking your child to the local library to take books out on these subjects would really help them in class.

Please remember that if you have any questions that we are always available for a chat, the end of the day is usually the best time to catch us.
