Just a gentle reminder that Pokémon cards, football cards, and similar items should not be brought into school, as they can cause distractions and sometimes get lost or traded unfairly.
Also, for safety reasons, we kindly ask that no electrical devices such as fans be brought into school.
Looking ahead to next week, we’re excited to be making castles as part of our history topic! Please could your child bring in a medium-sized box to use for their project. A shoe box or cereal box would be ideal. Thank you very much for your continued support!
This week in B2, the children have had a fantastic time finishing our class story The Iron Man. They’ve been working hard to summarise the key events and have enjoyed using their imaginations to write their own creative endings. In maths, we’ve been consolidating our understanding of pictograms—practising how to draw them accurately and interpret the data they show.
In history, we’ve been learning about royal residences and have started planning our own imaginative designs. Meanwhile, in art, the children have been developing their sewing skills, showing great patience and perseverance.
Reading
Children should be reading everyday and once a week this can be logged on

Here is the link for your children to quiz their books on- https://global-zone61.renaissance-go.com/welcomeportal/6704864
Please try and complete 1 a week if possible.
Note: some children will bring home both a RWI Reading book and an AR levelled reading book - please read both with your child.
Please make sure your child's reading book is in their school bag every day so that we can read with them at school also. Thank you for supporting your child's learning in this way.
