Hello Parents and Carers, Monday 30th January 2023
Welcome to a new week!
Our Topic for the whole Spring Term is TOYS!!
Reminders:
Year 1 are having their Number Day on Tuesday 31st January 2023. Children can come to school in number themed clothes or dressed as a famous mathematician. We will spend the day doing fun number-based activities.
This Thursday 2nd February 2023, Holly Class are going on a trip to Kensington Palace to attend a workshop all about Queen Victoria's toys.
Power Project hand-in date is this week. Due to our trip, we had originally set Wednesday 1st February 2023 as the hand-in date. As school is closed on Wednesday, we are asking children to bring in their projects on Friday 3rd February 2023. Children who have fiinished their projects, are welcome to bring them in any day this week.
You can find the Power Project sheet below. We always look forward to seeing all the fantastic Power Projects and listening to your child as they talk about what they have learnt.
As always, please do the Power Project with your child and resist the temptation to do it all for them.
If you have any questions or queries or would just like to say hello, please email me on:

Thank you very much!
