Prep News

In MSL, our Preps are learning the rule “The boat is slow”, focusing on the 'oa' and 'ow' digraphs that make the long 'o' sound.

In Maths, we’re exploring data by sorting objects and asking yes/no questions to collect information. On Thursday, our Year 5 buddies joined us to extend our learning by helping us collect data on Prep eye colours and adding this to a graph.
