Well done Bodhi on being the star of the month at martial arts and thank you for showing us your orange belt. What a superstar you are!
The children learnt about point and patch balances and came up with a routine with their partner, thinking about the transitions they needed between them. There were some great balances, I was very impressed. Well done class 8 x

This afternoon, Ezra and Spencer have been reading a story to the rest of the class.
The Year 4 Multiplication Tables Check (MTC) is a key part of the school curriculum in England, designed to ensure that pupils have a solid grasp of their times tables up to 12×12. This check is crucial, as quick recall of multiplication facts underpins many other areas of maths learning, from fractions to problem-solving.
Regular practice is key. One highly effective resource for this is Times Tables Rock Stars (TTRS). TTRS is a fun and interactive platform designed to help children master their times tables through engaging games and challenges. The platform focuses on building speed and accuracy in a way that keeps pupils motivated and excited about learning.
Whether used in the classroom or at home, TTRS provides targeted practice tailored to each child’s needs. It’s an excellent tool to help children build confidence and prepare effectively for the MTC.
I have attached guidance that we have received from the DFE.
Kind regards,
Mr Mumby
This morning, the children have been out litter picking down the school driveway. They’ve done a great job at making sure the school is looking as clean as possible.
This picture is nothing fancy, but it was a very happy teacher moment!
This picture shows how much focus my whole class had during the start of their reading fluency session. We are working on reading accurately with good pace when faced with a larger text. The effort and concentration by all was amazing. Well done class 12.
