This Term: Animalia
- We will be inviting 1 parent for each child to come to our ‘Learning Share’ to be held on the class patios on Wednesday 7th July. This will be a chance for you to look through your child’s work with them and then in small groups come into the classroom to take a look around and see where all their amazing learning has been taking place. Full social distancing will need to be observed. If you could bring a pen, you will have the opportunity to complete the parent view for your child’s report whilst you are sharing their work with them.
Class 5 – 2:30 pm – 3:15 pm (odds)
