This week in our ‘LMTW’ lessons we have been learning about African culture. We looked at the foods from across Africa and even had a go and making and eating some ourselves. We made a cous cous dish and mango smoothies.
Today we launched our Times Tables Rockstars Battle of the Bands. Each week we will find out the class that wins their year group battle and they will be awarded the year group trophy.
Well done to the children who have achieved 100% attendance last week.

School council and some of their friends attended the Armistice Day memorial service at the cenotaph in Monkton Village. They then laid a wreath on behalf of our school. They were absolutely amazing and a credit to our school .
