Having reflected on their learning, children in Years One- Years Six have set targets for Writing, Mathematics and IPC Goals in order to ensure they progress towards the next step in their learning journey. Targets are being sent home on Friday 21st October so you will have a copy at home. The students will have a copy in their workbooks.

You never stop Learning

Next week is our student council elections alongside French Stream Primary. The students have created amazing posters for the election.

As part of their Brainwave unit, Year 3 focused on skills and thought about how we can keep practising a skill to get better. They thought about how a skill would look if they were beginning, developing, or mastering it.

To put this into practice, they decided to teach Year 1 a skill; using a knife to make a jam sandwich!

The children designed their own assessment rubric, which they used when the Year 1 children made their sandwiches. They asked the Year 1s to reflect and self assess their skills. They then assessed them based on their observations.
