Our Learning
During this term, Year 6 pupils will be taking part in the SATS Boosting Program, to help them prepare for their upcoming assessments. This program is designed to provide extra support in key subjects, boost confidence, and enhance their skills through targeted lessons and practice sessions. We encourage all pupils to engage fully and make the most of this opportunity to achieve their best possible results.
On Mondays from 3:15 to 4:00 we will be running a SATS-boosting club and all year 6's from both classes are welcome to come along and work with their friends on areas they may be unsure on.

Times Tables: It is important all pupils are learning (and continue to practice) the timetables up to the 12 times table. These should be known by the end of year 4, but it is essential that the children continue to practice and recall these facts.
