Graffiti - Art or Vandalism?

I hope you're enjoying the work on graffiti.  This is a 'Banksy' classic that I thought I would share with you.  Remember, this week our focus is the argument AGAINST graffiti.

Also, just a reminder for you Year 6s to keep working through your revision guides for your SATs in May.

Harry Potter Books Needed!

If you have any Harry Potter books at home please bring them into school as they will be a focus in literacy this week!  The Philosophers Stone and Goblet of Fire will be particularly useful. 

World Maths Day

I hope you enjoyed the activities today and have had chance to use your cards to access the World Maths Day website.  Remember that your homework is due in on Friday.
