I.C.T – 

It has been such a pleasure to see all the Profiles being updated and wonderful to read about your achievements! By the end of the week we would like the each profile’s homepage to have an informational ‘all about me section’ and an ‘achievement’ sections with some pictures, or descriptions. We have discussed this in class and have committed some time to this, so we should all have some ideas about what to put in these sections.  I have visited a couple of profiles and left some notes, so check and see if yours is one of them!

P.E. – 

P.E. days are Mondays (single block) and Thursday (double block). Sorry for the delay in getting this information to you! P.E. kit is dark shorts and a white/plain t-shirt with comfortable sports shoes.

Other News – 

This week we have our open afternoon on Thursday! An email has been sent with details but please contact either myself or the office if you have any questions. Children will decide what skills and learning experiences they wish to share with you on this afternoon. I’m looking forward to meeting you all!
