Year Five have made huge progress in maths, this week. We have been studying decimals and how to represent equivalent decimals and fractions using base 10, tenth and hundredth discs, and place value charts. Great work, Year Five.

Year 3 are loving their Thursday afternoons of Spanish and Music. They learnt to say ‘My name is’ in Spanish and play glockenspiels along to ‘He’s got the whole world in his hands’ 

With even more new faces this week, our diddy Delph Siders have been happily building the most adorable little friendships.
