Year Five - Spotlight on Learning

Dear Families,

Don't forget this Wednesday 31st July is School Photo Day. Please ensure your child is wearing the correct Uniform. The students have been enjoying their Integrated Unit on dance. Please be sure to ask them to show you some of the styles of dance they have been learning and head over to Seesaw to see some amazing dancing.

With the upcoming Olympics, we are very excited to be following the progress of the Olympians whilst completing Math's activities. Its our own Maths Olympics. View Seesaw during the week to see photos of what we are up to. We are having an Olympics Games Activity on Friday 9th of August from11.45am - 12.30pm. Parents are invited to come to the classroom and participate in some Olympic Games the students have created. We look forward to seeing you during this time and having you enjoy the Olympic spirit.

Congratulations to those students who had their confirmation on Saturday. This is a huge step in your walk with the Lord, and we can't wait to see what God has in store for you throughout your spiritual journey.
