We have had another great week with the children
Thank you for all those that were able to make it to our Meet the Teacher. The PPT is shared below and has also been shared on Class Dojo.
Next week we have two exciting trips: a visit to Swansea Museum on September 23rd and a trip to watch the National Opera in Cardiff on the 26th September - so keep your eyes peeled for the letters.
Thank you for all your support in getting the children to school on time, correctly dressed for the weather and the days activities, with their reading journal and a 'can do' attitude.

Home Learning
Our expectation are for the children to read daily at home. We check their reading records each Friday. Please help us monitor this by keeping this record up to date.
It is essential that pupils develop quick recall of their times tables. We have regular TT Rockstars sessions in school. Pupils can practice their tables in a variety of ways including logging in to Sumdog from home
Sumdog activities will also be set on a regular basis. Each time these are set, the children have 1 week to complete these.
