Bookfest 2024

Today we introduced the books for the Bookfest to Red Class and all of the children were so excited to get started! We have chosen a mixture of different books for the children to read, some are shorter than others and some of the books may require an adult to help the children to read them. The children have chosen their first book and should have taken it home with them. As soon as they have finished reading their book, they can bring it back into school and choose another. It would be lovely for them to try and read as many of the books as possible. We hope that they will enjoy taking part in the Bookfest this year!

Times Tables (19.01.24)

On Friday 26th Jan, we will be testing times tables.

Year 3: 4 times tables.

Year 4: 8 times tables.

Please make sure your child learns these in and out of order. Secure tables knowledge helps with multiplication, fractions and lots of other maths.

Top Marks is a great site for learning tables.
