Looking Forward

As we start back at school, after the Easter break, it has been so nice to see the children smiling as they learn and play together. Even though the weather had been a little chilly, the children have still enjoyed their daily mile and play times outside. I love the outdoors, from walks in the woods to days at the beach and I hope that as restrictions begin to lift, we will all be able to enjoy doing the things we love once more. As I look ahead to this summer term, I am extremely excited by the learning opportunities the children have available to them, from learning about the Great Fire of London in year 2 to exploring the Ancient Egyptians in year 4 - there is a lot of exciting learning to take place.  I wonder what you are looking forward to over the summer term? I wonder what the children are most looking forward to? Whatever happens in the next fourteen school weeks I am confident that our wonderful staff team and children will all strive to make the best of this academic year and I wish you all a great summer ahead. 

I shall leave you with a challenge for this summer term! As a family or individually, see if you can do something this term that you have never done before. Children,  it might be to learn to ride your bike without stabilisers, run 1km without stopping or read a whole Harry Potter book. Whatever it might be - however big or small - see if you can do something new to help make this summer term memorable for you.
