We are looking forward to delivering the pilot of Red Rose Maths in EYFS in Reception in 2024.

Luckily the weather held out and we had a fantastic afternoon on Sports Day. The children had lots of fun competing and cheering on their friends. Thank you to the parents and carers for attending.

On 4th July, 4 Sacrament enjoyed taking part and having fun on Sports Day.

In 4 Blessed we have been learning about electricity. We used what we had learnt to make a torch in Design Technology. We used batteries, wire and a bulb to make a circuit, then used card to make a case and switch. We were all very proud of our final products.

Yesterday we explored our school garden. We recorded the types of flowers and trees we found. We took care to draw the shapes of the petals and leaves correctly to help us make a leaflet to identify them. 
 

Year 1 are busy learning number bonds to ten so we have a really quick recall of these number facts. We have been using a ten frame to make as many different ways as we could. Miss Moore has challenged her class to use the game called Hit the Button on the Top Marks website to improve speed! Why…

This week year 1 have completed their phonics screening check. Every single child tried their best and have impressed us so much. We are all very proud of them and thankful for your support at home in reading with your child.
