  • Welcome to the Spring Term! This term, we are reading Arthur and the Golden Rope by Joe Todd-Stanton. Imagine a vault so cavernous that it could contain all the world's greatest treasures and relics, from mummified remains of ancient monarchs to glistening swords brandished by legendary warriors. How could someone come into possession of such a collection. Who is Professor Brownstone?
    Hear the story of the very first items in this collection as we journey to the land of the Vikings. A place filled with magical objects, powerful gods and mythical beasts to be conquered!

    Our Science enquiry this half-term is ‘What forces do we see?’.

    Our History enquiry is ‘How did the Vikings affect Britain?’.

    In Maths, we will be focusing on Graphs and Fractions.

  • Tuesday - Outdoor P.E (Health and Fitness)

    Your child will have come home with a love of reading book and a learning to read book, they should be recording in their reading log frequently. Children should be encouraged to read at home daily and to log this. You can add comments to their reading log so that we can see what they have been reading, and how they have been getting on with reading at home.

    Your child also has a TT Rockstars login and should be practising their times tables little and often.
