The weather is getting colder and the evenings drawing in. With that in mind please ensure your child wear a jumper and that they bring in a coat. The doors and windows will be open so the class might get a little cold. Some children had their yearly flu vaccination this week.
Another active week. We had PE on Monday and will continue to have sessions until the end of the term so please remind your children to come to school in their PE kit on a Monday and Wednesday. They also had their normal session on Wednesday and on Friday they had an Orienteering lesson. Unfortunately, swimming was cancelled and with the new lockdown restrictions swimming will continue to be cancelled until further notice.
In Maths we completed our functions unit and started looking at fractions. In literacy we started our poetry study and we will continue expanding our poetic arsenal next week. I hope to complete the unit with the finale of appropriate Remembrance poetry.
The children started studying the origins of Christmas and we filmed the Head Boy and Head Girl clips ready for the elections next week. With elections in mind, we also kept a keen eye on the US Elections and the number of seats each candidate has gained.
I hope you have a great weekend and trust you are all safe and well.
Mr Wilmot
