Coronavirus School Closure

Dear Kingfishers,

We hope that you are all well and are studying hard at home! For those of you missing our ‘Fun Maths’ sessions below is a link to the wonderful White Rose Maths. The White Rose Maths Team has prepared a series of five maths lessons for each year group, so there will be one for year 4 and one for year 5. Every lesson comes with a short video showing you clearly and simply how to complete the activity successfully. Please go to  https://whiterosemaths.com/homelearning/ and select your year group. There are also some useful websites below and don’t forget our Topic Project.

Missing you all and looking forward to seeing you soon,

Ms Bradley and Mr Corke.

Welcome to Kingfishers Class!

We are a mixed age class of 4 and 5 children. The class teachers are Mr Corke and Ms Bradley and our learning support assistants are Mrs Brinklow and Miss Lee. Our classroom is at the top floor of the Victorian building. We are proud of our school and enjoy working hard. We enjoy our school environment and like learning through 'hands on' experience.
