We have had a really good half term in Class Four, with the majority of children really focused on picking up their learning and working hard. The focus on spelling and handwriting to improve presentation and accuracy is showing good progress and the children have also been very resposnive to the creative writing work and the topic of Ancient Egypt (just wait until we get to mummification!)
They enjoyed presenting their different Harvest Service in school, and we will be planning some Christmas activities for them, however these will sadly still have to be without a parental audience. We will do what we can to share their experiences with parents.
