We have been learning about Fractions this week.  Today we concentrated on halves and quarters.  Here we are creating accurate patterns using fractions of colour.

Edinburgh School Trip

27453482-edinburgh-grunge-rubber-stamp-on-white-vector-illustrationWe are very excited about our school trip to Edinburgh tomorrow! In the morning we are looking forward to visiting Greyfriars Bobby and in the afternoon we will be going on a spooky tour of Mary King’s Close! We learned lots about these places during our Edinburgh topic and now we cannot wait to visit them in real life!

The forecast is looking good for tomorrow and the sun is expected to be shining so please put on some sun cream before you come to school.

Please remember to bring a packed lunch in a disposable bag so it can be thrown away when you are finished.

 Hopefully, there will be an opportunity to visit the gift shop at Mary King’s Close so if you wish to buy something please bring some money – no more than £5.

You can come to school dressed down for the trip. We will be doing a lot of walking so please come wearing some comfortable footwear.

Finally, we are hoping to return to school at 3pm, traffic allowing! However, if we expect to be late we will contact the school as soon as we can and parents will receive a text message with an approximate return time.

 Check out our blog throughout the day tomorrow! We will be keeping you updated with our visit to Edinburgh and uploading lots of pictures!
