This Week in Surrey
Week beginning 8th June 2026
Our first full week back has started really positively. We have been thoroughly enjoying reading our new termly text, 'Varjak Paw'. It links really well to our History topic of 'Ancient Civilisations' looking at Mesopotamia. Varjak Paw just happens to be a kitten within the 'Mesopotamian Blue' breed. Unfortunately he is not accepted by his siblings due to the small matter of having different coloured eyes. This has sparked some brilliant discussion within English and PSHE lessons about stereotypes and prejudices. We have enjoyed creating our own information leaflets, detailing our knowledge on this.
In Maths we have been building our learning on 'time'. We have been embedding skills such as telling the time on an analogue clock to 5 minutes, e.g. noting it's 25 to 8. Then building on this to telling the time to the minute, converting this to digital time, then adapting this to a 24-hour clock. Every child's learning journey is different, so please continue to embed for all children how to tell the time on an analogue clock if they are not yet confident.
We are enjoying learning shop names and food within French alongside beginning to explore Ancient Egyptian civilisations in History.
Well done Surrey!
