2024/2025

Anti-Bullying Week

This week is Anti-Bullying Week.  The theme this year is 'Respect'.  We started the week with an interactive, online workshop with Hip Psychology.  

Literacy Workshop

We enjoyed a workshop with local author Declan Carville.  We listened to his story 'The Magic Harp' and had a great discussion based upon it and his many other books.  

MATHS WEEK 

Multiplication Flowers 

Leaf Measuring

 

We measured to find the longest/widest leaves.  We had to problem solve to figure out a way to display our findings.  Then we analysed the measurements.

Maths Games

We explored a range of Maths activities in the hall.  Concepts including symmetry, tessellation and number were all revised.
