Happy Friday Everybody!
We hope you all had a fantastic half term break. This week in English, we have been using props to retell the story 'Shark in the Dark' in preparation for writing our own versions of the story next week. In Maths, the children in Year 1 have been finding all the number bonds for different numbers to 10 whilst the children in Year 2 have been subtracting single digit numbers from a two digit number. We have also finished painting and decorating our Diyas. The children will bring them home next week when they are dry.
Sadly the hen rehome has been cancelled again! This is due to circumstances beyond The British Hen Welfare Trusts control. We are now on a waiting list for a future rehome of caged hens, but it is unlikely to be this year now, given that avian flu is affecting may chicken farmers.

Spellings
New spelling sheets are in the children's bags along with this week's Animaphonics books.
Thank you so much for all of your support at home. Your efforts really do help your child's confidence and fluency in Maths and Reading.
We hope you all have a lovely weekend!
