Another excellent week in Year 6. The children have again been working their socks off with SATS preparation and we have seen some brilliant progress in Maths.

Woodlands 2023 – Thursday

One group canoeing, two groups walking.  Two groups climbing.  Vegetable pasta bake and Viennetta. Viennetta? Yes Viennetta.  Rarely seen since the 1970s, but still just as good as ever!  Sold to the children as ‘ice-cream lasagne,’ which is a fair description actually.
