This Week...

This week the rain has not stopped us from continuing with our amazing learning!

On Tuesday we held our first 'Learn Together' event for our Reception families. The teacher's put together activities which the children have been doing in class and laid them out in the hall so that our learners could show their families how they learn in school. Thank-you to all of the families who joined us, it was our most popular 'Learn Together' event yet! Year 1 your Learn Together event is next Wednesday (2nd October) at 2:45pm.

Aquamarine Class kicked off our class assemblies this week. Miss Brassinne was most impressed with the way the children spoke about their learning to the whole school.
