Welcome Year 5 in 2020

First of all, “Happy New Year” to all children and adults.

This marks the beginning of a short, but shockingly intense term. We are starting with a very exciting week. On Wednesday, hopefully everybody will be dressed up for our Greek Day.

Apart from that, we will be learning …
