Reporting against National Standards

As you have heard in the News these days, it is now our job to report to you about your child's progress towards the National Standards in Reading, Writing and Maths. You will have had a copy of the report format with some very useful information. If you have any further questions please do not hesitate to come and talk to me about them. So far I have reported to at least half of you as your child has just recently had their first year anniversary at school. It was hugely exciting to see the amazing learning they had all undertaken. I am currently in the process of testing the other half of the class being those who are working towards their 2 year anniversary. A note will be coming home soon asking you to come and make a time for Week 10 for this report.

Colour Mixing

We have been learning lots about primary and secondary colours.  Watch this space for photos of our fabulous art work - self portraits using chalk, pastel and dye.  We used a variety of WARM and COOL colours.  For our backgrounds we had to "tint" red or blue with white to make lighter colours, based on Picasso's blue or rose period paintings.
