In Maths, we have bought our measures unit to a close. This week we investigated different perimeter lengths. The children enjoyed the challenge of finding different perimeter lengths, for a set of ‘paving stones’.  We are continuing to focus on developing the children’s times table skills and related division facts as these will help the children in our upcoming fractions unit.

In RE, we continue with our Advent unit looking at prophesies for the birth of Christ.

There is a Carol service at Sacred Heart on Wednesday 12th December 6 -7 pm. It would be lovely to see as many of you there as possible.

We have had many queries about greater depth questions on Sumdog. With every 100 questions completed there is a new and greater challenge.

We hope you have a lovely weekend.
