Spellings
Each week, your child will have a set of words to learn and remember. Please do spend just 5 minutes a day going over their spellings with them.
Books this Year.
Our focus books this term are Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll. A curious child, Alice cannot resist the lure of a mysterious and wondrous land that she first visits by way of a rabbit's hole.
Oliver Twist by Charles Dickens. .jpg)
The story of the orphan Oliver, who runs away from the workhouse only to be taken in by a den of thieves, shocked readers when it was first published. Dickens’s tale of childhood innocence beset by evil depicts the dark criminal underworld of a London peopled by vivid and memorable characters – the arch-villain Fagin, the artful Dodger and the menacing Bill Sikes.
P.E.
P.E. takes place every week on Wednesday afternoons. Please ensure that your child has their bag with them.
