Class News

Wow! What a busy first week! The Whizz Kids have thoroughly enjoyed their first week back. We have started reading our new class novel 'Trash'. We are already gripped; it's definitely going to be a good read. In maths, we have been doing further work on statistics and reading timetables. The Whizz Kids have demonstrated some excellent skills. I'm very impressed. We've started our Science topic on Evolution. I'm sure the children will learn lots of new information during this topic. We have also started our new topic 'Land of the Free', which is looking at North America. We started this topic by doing some map skills. After a few bad weeks attendance last half-term (those bugs certainly wiped some of us out), I'm pleased to say the Whizz Kids have come back with a bang this week and won the attendance of the week - we've only had one person off on one day! Brilliant - keep this up! This week, I sent out our curriculum newsletter. Please have a read and pop into school if you have any queries. I've also attached a copy to our class page. As you all know, it's Parents' Evening next week; I'm looking forward to meeting all parents and carers, sharing news on your child's achievements. If you haven't made an appointment, please do so. Last of all, I sent out the Crucial Crew trip letter this week. This trip is on the 9th March. Please send letters back ASAP. I can't wait for this visit!

What a great first week back! The Whizz Kids have been busy learning about Place Value in Maths and we have continued reading The Lion, The Witch And The Wardrobe in Literacy - it's getting exciting! In topic learning, we have been learning about renewable energy and how we can improve the environment. Some of the Whizz Kids visited Trinity Academy this afternoon and represented the school extremely well.

Merry Christmas to all Whizz Kids, parents and carers!

Good Evening.

Evening! I hope you have all had a fabulous half-term break and had lots of fun. I am very excited to see you all back in school tomorrow.

The Whizz Kids enjoyed Egyptian Day today and celebrated further by winning their second balloon for the best attendance!

Well, what a busy few weeks we've had. The children (and staff!) had a wonderful week at Kingswood during week 5. Last week, we had fun reading our novel Holes and writing letters from the main character's perspective. This week we have been busy in maths. We've enjoyed multiplication and problem solving using these skills. Today, we started making our death masks - what an exciting afternoon it was.

Wow! What a wonderful week! Wednesday was very exciting; we worked with Ian Bland (a poet) and had such fun writing poems. On Wednesday and Thursday, we met the principals of Trinity Academy and South Axholme Academy. Today, we had lots of fun with Jenny Wallwork (an Olympic medalist), taking part in some circuit training. This was such an inspiring event. Remember what Jenny said, "Work hard and you can be whatever you want to be!"

Hello!

What a busy week! The Whizz Kids have been working incredibly hard! We really enjoyed Egyptian Day, especially mummifying a pharaoh! In Maths, we have worked super hard on addition and problem solved using this skill. In Literacy, we have started some instruction writing all about 'How To Mummify A Pharaoh!' We can't wait to share this once it's complete. The Whizz Kids have also enjoyed French Day - we did French art work, played French games and tasted French food - what a treat!
