“Learning, loving and encouraging through Christ.”
This term we are learning about Abstract Art.
Last week we looked at the artist Kadinsky. The children looked at his circle painting whilst re-capping primary and secondary colours and mixing colours.
They then had to paint the circles, using different colours, shades and tints, ensuring they kept within the lines.
Last week we ran a parent meeting about the Phonics Screening that Year One pupils will do in June this year.
Please find attached the Powerpoint.
Children should have also received a pack if you weren’t able to attend the meeting.
If you have any questions or queries please don’t hesitate to contact your class teacher or Miss Common!

Well done to Jack for being the star of the week. This was awarded for always coming into school with a smile, for being a great role model to his peers and always trying his best. Great work Jack.
Last week, years 4, 5 and 6 all got the opportunity to have a taster in boogie bounce. It looked like everyone had lots of fun, even the teachers who decided to take part as well! We were very lucky to have them come into our school and teach us different moves.
Last term Year 4 and 5 took part in a sports hall Athletics competition at the Marsh Academy. Both year groups did fantastically well and a team from each year group won their heats. They all showed great sportsmanship and tried their best in every event! Well done to everyone who took part.
This week in Maths we have been learning about more than, less than and equal to. We have been busy comparing objects and numbers using the key language.

Well done to Harley for showing a positive attitude to learning in all lessons this week!
Attached is our curriculum overview for this term.
This week we have been busy learning all about numbers to 20. We have counted forwards and backwards, made numbers in a range of ways, read the numbers as a numeral and a word and looked at how many tens and ones in the numbers. Over the week, we have used a range of resources; numicon, tens frames and counters and then we learnt all about dienes and arrow cards.
We hope you all had a fantastic Christmas break.
Year 1 have another busy term and attached is a copy of this term’s homework.
