Although 2021 did not start as we all expected, there has been so much amazing learning going on.
We are so proud of you all (children and parents) for adapting to remote learning once again.
You have all done a wonderful job and have created a wealth of creative projects as well continuing to practise your phonics, reading, writing and maths skills.
Thank you for your continued support and have a great half term break!

World Book Day - 4th March
World Book Day - 4th March
World Book Day is fast approaching on Thursday 4th March and although things may be slightly different this year, we will still be spending the day celebrating a range of fantastic books and taking part in some great book related activities.
Whether your child is at school or is learning from home, we would love them to dress up on this day as a book character of their choice! We would love to see their costumes so please make sure you send them in via your year group emails.
Children are never too young to start their journey with books and the benefits of reading are enormous - we are looking forward to another great World Book Day where we can celebrate this.
Please check the dates section regularly as dates may change and new dates will be added.
