In Summer 2 Human Growth will be our unit of work. In English our focus novel is Boy in the Girl's Bathroom and Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet (Mrs Cook's favourite!). We are very excited to be working with Wellington Prep school and learning Latin! Of course we are VERY excited about our trip to Beaulieu!! We can't wait!

Dear Parents/Carers,

Please find an information video on how you can support your child with learning to spell. These strategies can be used to inspire your child to learn their spellings and retain them.

You will also see a crib sheet of the strategies presented in the video as well as some additional strategies which aren't mentioned in the video.

We hope you find it useful.
