Weekly note 14.5.18

We hope you enjoyed your extra holiday this week!  We have had a great couple of days at school too.

Here’s what’s coming next week:-

Lihou:  Please could you ensure payments and forms for Lihou are made ASAP.

We will be holding a meeting for parents/carers and children who are coming to Lihou on Monday 4th June at 5.30pm.  Please come along as we will be handing out medical forms and going over the itinerary and kit list.

Numeracy: We will be looking at proportion and then moving onto percentages.

Literacy: We will be writing our own persuasive letter.  The children should have chosen a company that they would like to persuade e.g. a toothpaste company.  They then need to think of what they would like to persuade them to do e.g. not use cardboard boxes to hold the tubes in or not use plastic tubes.  Then they need to think of 3 reasons why this would be better for the environment. If they would like to do any extra research for this they can! Please ensure that the homework is completed by Monday.
