Amethyst & Emerald Blog - 24th March 2023

 Happy Friday, everybody! We are all very excited about Monday's trip to Barleylands so we just wanted to give some important final reminders about this day.

Barleylands Trip

  • On Monday the gates will open at 8:30am and close at 8:45am. The coaches are leaving at 9:00am prompt so please make sure you get here for 8:30am - set those alarms!
  • Children need to be in normal school uniform although you can wear comfortable footwear or footwear that takes the weather conditions into account.
  • Children need to bring a packed lunch and a filled water bottle. This needs to be clearly labelled. It will be easier for the children if this is all in a disposable bag that can be thrown away at the end of lunchtime.
  • No money or anything else needs to be brought in on this day.

Maths Homework

This week, we would like you to look at pages 46 & 47.

For both Year 1's and Year 2's this continues to focus on mass and ways to measure. This is a fantastic opportunity to do a spot of baking (maybe in the Easter holidays) as it will involve lots of practical measuring and reading of marked scales. Take a photo of any of your wonderful efforts (or of course bring us in a slice!) we would love to see them all.

Don't forget to keep up all your fantastic efforts with your reading at home - it will make a huge impact on your child's reading development. Keep using the range of questions we have discussed previously as well!

If you have any issues or questions, please, please come and see us at the end of the day - we would love to see you!

Have a lovely weekend - see you at 8:30am on Monday!

Best wishes

Mr Jude & Mrs Yuille
