Hi

Just

break and I will see you all next term.

OF THE WEEK
“I didn’t realise it was the
last week of term!” said
by no teacher ever!
DESIGN HUB
Thank you for all the kind donations to the Design Hub. Can I ask that we hold off until next term before bringing any more recycling in? This will give me a chance to get rid of some of the materials that aren't suitable anymore and make more room for another influx of goods. Cheers!
READERS
No
readers were given out today as they have made their way back to the library.
All children should be reading their own books this week. Thank you!
PLD
SPELLING SOUNDS
The
PLD placement test will be on Wednesday. Children should be revising all the
