Rights Respecting Schools Award
A huge thank you to all the children, parents, staff, governors and PTA members who took part in our recent reaccreditation for the UNICEF Rights Respecting Schools Award. We are happy to share with you our recent report confirming our success in maintaining the Gold Award!
Take a look at the report here and read more about what RRS means to us as a school here.
We thank you all for your continued support in learning about Children's Rights which is key to fulfilling our curriculum statement; learning to care for ourselves, each other, our school and our world.
Go team Down Hall...WE ARE GOLD!
Times Tables Rock Stars Day
We have all had a rocking day today with lots of fun activities during our day. As well as getting to dress up as Rock Stars (everyone looked awesome!) we took part in a times tables treasure hunt as well as lots of practice on our times tables in class!
Maths Homework
This week we would like you to look at pages 64-65.
For Year 1's this looks at 3D shapes. As well as knowing the names of the common 3D shapes, the children need to be able to describe their mathematical properties, for example, how many faces and vertices that it has.
For Year 2's, this looks at patterns and symmetry in shapes. This could be in creating their own increasingly complex patterns using shape and colour and also recognising shapes that are symmetrical and those which are not.
Below are some games for exploring shape and symmetry:
Don't forget to keep up all your fantastic efforts with your reading at home as well as either your phonics or comprehension homework books - it will make a huge impact on your child's reading development.
As always, we are available on our Key Stage 1 email. However, we would encourage you to come and see us at the end of the day if there are any issues or questions that you have. Just come down the steps to see us!
