Dear Parents,
The past few weeks have certainly been eventful in the
Monkey Puzzles class. Most of the class were at Heatree House for
their residential trip last week. They excelled themselves by
challenging their teams to new heights (quite literally!) It was great
to see every single child stepping out of their comfort zone by trying
something new and exciting. I was especially proud of their good
manners which were commented on by Heatree staff. Well done
Monkey Puzzles.
The Monkey Puzzles who stayed in school had great fun designing
board games linked to our topic and then creating TV adverts to
persuade customers to buy their games. Miss Saunders was delighted
with their effort and great behaviour.
This week we have been busily thinking about our progress so far this
year . Everyone has been trying extremely hard to improve their test
scores and to write some great persuasive letters.
