Good afternoon everyone,

We’ve had an excellent day, all dressed in green for Oakhaven. Who knew the children of Brockenhurst had so many green clothes! Many thanks for all your donations for what is such a worthy cause.

The children have worked so hard for me in Maths this week. We have started to learn how to tackle column addition, particularly how to set the calculations out neatly to ensure the answer doesn’t become muddled. The children were all feeling confident at this by the end of the week.

In English, we have started a new book called The Street Beneath My Feet by Charlotte Guillain and Yuval Zommer. This links with our Science topic of Rocks, Fossils and Soil. We had a great time investigating different rocks this week, using magnifying glasses to look closely at them and then making careful observational drawings to show their differences.

It was lovely to see so many of you during Parents’ Evenings this week. Please don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have any further questions:  cmorris23@brockenhurst-primary.hants.sch.uk

Whatever you are doing, I wish you all an enjoyable and restful half-term,

Clare
