Weekly update 11.10.24

The children in Year 5 had a wonderful day on Thursday thinking about how they can support their mental health and those around them. We planted daffodils along with the rest of the school, created artwork, poems and enjoyed an active session in the hall. In maths this week the children have been recapping the skills they already have to solve addition and subtraction calculations and will spend the next few lessons practicing skills that will help them tackle a range of mathematical problems. They are really getting into the swing of practising our songs for Young Voices and are working hard to learn movements and sign language to go with some of the songs.
