Christmas Party and Christmas homework details









This week we have been very busy!

In Literacy we were looking at the Nativity story and its importance at Christmas. In Numeracy we were learning about doubling and halving numbers and word problems.

Today we had our Christmas party which we all really enjoyed. We had fun playing games, dancing and ofcourse eating our party food.

We wish you a very merry Christmas and a happy new year and look forward to seeing you on Tuesday 4th January.
Mr. Merchant and Miss Porter
