Class 2 Weekly Update 07.09.18

Welcome back everybody! It has been lovely to meet most of you at the door in the morning. I hope that your children have been looking forward to coming to school in the morning as much as I have.
We have had a wonderful week together settling in. We have been getting used to the new routine and have shown that we are all more than ready to enter KS1.
If you have not received our curriculum newsletter, here it is below.

If you need me for anything, please call in any time for a chat.

Summer holiday news

Thank you

On behalf of all the staff, thank you all for your support, kind words, cards and gifts at the end of term. 2017-2018 has been a very busy and, at times, challenging year for us at Bicton but the parental support and community spirit makes every day so worthwhile and sums up what is so special about our school and nursery.

It was sad to say goodbye to some of our staff and pupils but we wish them all the very best of luck for the future and are sure that many will stay in touch.  We are now looking forward to the next school year and the exciting opportunities that 2018-2019 will bring.

Online safety

Just a reminder that if you have any concerns during the holidays about your child’s safety online, please visit  https://www.thinkuknow.co.uk/parents/for more advice and information on how to keep your child safe online.

Enjoy the rest of the holidays!

Class 4 weekly update

English: The children have completed assessments in english (writing and reading) this week.  They have worked hard on these – well done!

Maths: They have been converting units of time (years, months, weeks, days, hours, minutes) and looking at timetables. They have also completed a maths assessment.

DT/Art: They have been making Greek head dresses for the celebration assembly next week which look great!  In DT they have been looking at Greek food and what they ate in Ancient Greek times.  Next week the children will be tasting some Greek food and designing and making their own flatbread with a twist.

Science: They have been doing work on light and how it travels.  The children had lots of interesting discussion about this.

There will be no spellings or homework for next week.

Please could all children keep practising the song and dance for celebration assembly next week.  I have been really impressed by how quickly they have learnt all the lines by heart and they all sound wonderful!  Thank you for all your hard work so far with this.

Please could you bring in Greek toga style costumes by Monday for the assembly.  As mentioned in the letter a white sheet with something to tie around the waist will be perfect, or even a large white shirt/tshirt. 

Have a lovely weekend,

Mrs Thomas
