We kick-started our second week of health and happiness fortnight, with a brilliant sports day. The children’s team spirit was sky high, as was their enthusiasm and resilience. It was wonderful to watch them cheering each other on and clapping as loud as they could. Thank you for everyone who came to watch, it was wonderful sharing the event with you all.

In Maths we have continued our learning of time and have practised and practised and practised writing the time digitally. The children have learned about AM and PM too. Their perseverance with time has been outstanding! We have also been improving our confidence using a number line to help us to solve subtraction questions as it can be a really helpful tool, one which makes subtraction much easier!

In Geography have been learning about services in our local area. They located where services were on a map of St Anne’s and discussed what patterns they could see. They then designed their own town, carefully placing the services where they thought they should go.

We have moved on to learn how to create our own spreadsheets in Computing, which we thoroughly enjoyed! First, we gathered some data for our tables and bar charts. We chose a very pressing subject to collect our data on… our favourite ice-cream flavour! Once we had our data we then put this information onto a table, and then discovered how we can take this information and place it onto bar charts and pie charts! We are very much looking forward to building these skills further next week!
