Year 3 Week 5 Newsletter:Term 2

6th February 2021

Dear Parent/Guardian,

The children are now well settled in Year 3. This week, they have conducted investigations on light, reasoned and shared opinions during group activities in English and Humanities lessons. As mathematicians, the children interacted with the space and 2D objects in their environment to deepen their understanding of perimeter.

We commend them for the enthusiasm and positive energy they have displayed throughout the week.
