Class 4 have been enjoying mindful movements this term. We have been learning lots of different yoga poses and meditation to help us self regulate and keep calm.
This week our school celebrated International Maths Day. The theme this year is ‘Playing with Maths’. For our Maths lesson, children played a variety of board games including chess, trivial pursuit, connect 4, monopoly and more.
