Welcome back to term 5, I hope you all had a lovely break.
Thank you to those of you who attended our open event on Wednesday after school. We hope you enjoyed the opportunity to have a look at your child's work and to find out what the children will be learning over the next few weeks. We hope you also had the chance to see the children's homework. I would like to say well done to all of the children for this, the effort they put in was fantastic!
The children started the week by reflecting on their learning from the last module. Some photos and examples of their reflections have been put together to form class reflection sites. We hope you will enjoy looking at these.

National Online Safety
National Online Safety
A free online safety guide on group chats.
Occurring through messaging apps, on social media and in online games, group chats are among the most popular ways that young people engage with their peers online. Involving, by definition, three or more individuals, these groups allow users to send messages, images and videos to everyone in one place. While they are useful for helping friends, people with shared interests or members of a club to communicate and coordinate activities, they can also leave young people feeling excluded and bullied – as well as providing opportunities for inappropriate content to be shared and viewed.
In the guide, you'll find tips on a number of potential risks such as bullying, inappropriate content and unknown members.
