Our first week back after the summer holidays

After the Summer holidays, the children returned to school this week looking extremely smart and with a positive attitude to their year ahead.

On Wednesday, the children settled in to their new classes. We discussed their holidays by completing an alphabet linking each letter to something they did over the six weeks. We also discussed their Rights as a child and used these Rights to support in making our Class Charters (an agreement between Rights Holders and Duty Bearers to follow within the classroom).

Next week at school, the children will continue learning about numbers and place value (focusing on Roman numerals, negative numbers and rounding) in Maths; we will start our English genre of writing which is on Myths and Legends (linking it to our Project on Ancient Greeks) and continue our Geography-focus in our Project lessons, interpreting maps on Greece and Ancient Greece.
