Announcements

Mathletics Week

This will take place next week and this year's theme is EcoMaths. In line with our term’s target, #planet'spartners, the children will seek to adapt activities that promote sustainability as they deepen their understanding in Maths.

On Friday, 5th February 2021, the children will dress in green to wrap up what is promising to be a refreshing week of fun with numbers.

NGRT

Year 3 children will sit for the New Group Reading Test (NGRT) on Monday, 1st February 2021. The test will be administered online. Therefore, we request for your support in allowing your child to carry a fully charged laptop or iPAD to school for the exercise.
