W/B: 19/01/2026

In Maths, we have now completed our shape topic, where the children explored 2D and 3D shapes and learned to describe their properties. We are moving on to money, where the children will be recognising coins and notes, counting amounts and solving simple problems involving money. You can support this at home by encouraging your child to handle money and talk about prices when shopping.

In Art, the children will be developing their creativity by focusing on architecture over the next few weeks. They will be designing and building their own structures using foam boards and a range of other materials, thinking carefully about shape, structure and stability. We’re really looking forward to seeing their imaginative designs come to life!

In RE, we are learning all about how Muslims pray. The children will be exploring why prayer is important in Islam and learning about the key features of Muslim prayer, helping them to develop understanding and respect for different beliefs and cultures.

Indoor Athletics Event
Children who have been selected to attend the Indoor Athletics at Rickmansworth Secondary School on Thursday 29th January should be dropped off after school. Unfortunately, there will be no parent viewing areas available.
I will be at the gate to meet the children and will bring them back to the gate once the event has finished.
