Friday 8 June 2018


Welcome back after your half term holiday. We have spent this first week back learning about Russia in our international week. This has included learning about the composer Tchakovsky and artist Kandinsky. We also used some measuring maths skills as we baked some Russian honey cake and enjoyed the mini world cup. Our talk homework this week has a very famous religious landmark on it from Moscow can you share what your families what you know about it. Please note that due to the sing up event that some of the year two will attend we have decided to send this home on Monday.

The mini world cup (see photos below) has got us into a sporty mood especcially with the school sports week looming on the horizon. We have also had good news with one of our golf teams being selected to take part in Norfolk summer school games 2018. Those asked to take part will be informed shortly and the event will be during the school day (10-12.30) of Tuesday 19th June and will take place at the Norwich family golf centre. The PE theme continues with some children going to the Norfolk show soon to perform a dance. Please continue to support us in reminding the children that they have been provided with a fabulous opportunity and should treat it as one when taking part in any of the experiences, from practice through to event.

Next week sees us return to our carnival of the animals topic and with the whole school trip to Africa alive coming up we are going to be learning about more worldly animals from places such as the polar, desert and rainforest areas. Can you name where any of these are on the map? Do any of the countries you represented at the mini world cup have any of these habitats?

We plan on doing some maths work that includes telling the time and different daily puzzles and questions that will encourage the children to use many of the skills taught this year. Please continue to try and use your maths skills at home, have you got an older/younger sibling you could teach or test?
