At Young Voices, we had the privilege to sing ‘Proud’ with award winning singer Heather Small. The song was recorded during rehearsals on the day and has been made into a single. The CD is now available to purchase on the link below. All proceeds will go towards the Young Voices Charity ‘Place2Be’ which is a charity that supports Children’s mental health. Thanks for all of your support with this!

The Big Battery Hunt is a nationwide battery recycling programme for schools funded by Duracell. Its aim is to increase the number of batteries currently being recycled in the UK. Pupils are challenged to collect as many batteries as they can, encouraging their communities to do the same.
All you need to do is take any unwanted batteries into school and give them to your school councillor. The school council will collect the batteries, keep count of them and recycle them for you. Let’s see how many we can collect this year!
We’ve had a great afternoon celebrating world book day. We started off with a book hunt and then created some artwork using quotes from some of our favourite books.

Over the next two weeks, we will be learning all about angles. We need to be able to label different angles, order and compare them and be able to measure them using a protractor. We are also learning how to draw different angles. After all that, we will be looking at how to work out missing angles on a straight line and around a point.
