Week beginning 27th January 2020

Dear Parents,
We are learning about Space, Moon and Neil Armstrong.
Please support us by enabling your child to be confident, independent learners by leaving them at the door in the morning to get on with organising themselves with their book bag and coats and promptly starting their Early morning work which consolidates their new learning.
Our context for learning is ‘Now you see me, Now you don’t’.
