Thank you to all the parents who attended our Year 5 and 6 workshops tonight. We know it was a lot of information to take in all at once but hopefully you have improved your understanding of how we teach Maths, Reading, Writing, Spellings and times tables in school and have some more ideas of how you can help in some of these areas at home.

Powerpoints, resources and handouts will be posted on the website soon.
