Autumn 2 - Week 2

This week in English, we have used the Varmints book as inspiration to write persuasive pieces encouraging people to look after our trees and wildlife. We explored a range of persuasive techniques, including rhetorical questions, emotive language, and strong arguments to help carry our message. I was very impressed with the creativity, passion, and quality of the work produced!

This week in Maths, we continued our work on fractions by practising how to add and subtract fractions with different denominators. We also learned how to add mixed numbers and simplify our answers by finding the lowest common multiple. The class then applied their knowledge to solve a variety of challenging reasoning problems. I was very pleased with their determination, focus, and excellent problem-solving skills!

Paying Our Respects on Remembrance Day

At the 11th hour, on the 11th day of the 11th month, we paused to honour the brave men and women who served and sacrificed for our freedom.

We remember their courage, their commitment, and the lives forever changed by war and conflict.

Lest we forget.
