Destiny Ricketts, Ollie Drury, Hollie Harris, Alfie Holloway, Kaci Holloway, Maeve Dillon, Rowan Miller, Tia Weeks and

Best Behaved Classes of the Week: Well done to all the children in Red, Orange, Yellow, Green and Blue for staying on green

all week.

Just a reminder that our amazing Year 6 children will be taking their SATs next week. Please

support us in ensuring your child has 100% attendance across the week and arrives at school

promptly. There will be breakfast snacks and juice available from 8:45 to 9:10 across the week.

Please be assured that your child has been well prepared in school. They have experienced past

papers and revised key curriculum areas to give them confidence. We keep reminding them how

well they are doing and how proud they make us feel. Help your child to put the assessment week

into perspective. Whilst we all want them to do well, we want them to be reassured that life goes on

as normal. A huge thanks to all the parents who have supported their child and the school over the

past year and I’m sure you will all join me in wishing our children the very best of luck!

8 x Times Tables Tip!

Have a look at these timesavers.

The numbers in the 8 × table are always even. This means they can be divided by 2 without remainder. If it’s an odd number then it is not in

the 8 × table!

Have a look at the 8 × table again. The unit digits have a regular pattern - they go down in 2s.

1 x 8 = 8 2 x 8 = 16 3 x 8 = 24 4 x 8 = 32 5 x 8 = 40 6 x 8 = 48 7 x 8 = 56 8 x 8 = 64

Spelling Tip

Here’s the answer to a tricky spelling. It’s

dedicated to footy fans!

Parent Governor Nomination

Following the recent nomination

process for a new Parent Governor,

one nomination only was received, from

Mr Martin Ovenden, who has one child

in Sunshine Nursery and another in

Red Class. Mr Ovenden has

therefore been appointed without the

need for an election, with effect from

15 April 2018 until 15 April 2022.

Congratulations to our lovely Rainbow

Class children for a wonderfully

ambitious class assembly. ‘There’s A

Sunflower In My Supper’ was a real

treat to watch. What a talented bunch

of children we have! Thank you to all

our families for attending and a huge

shout out to our PTA for the tea and

coffee beforehand.
