Dear Parents and Carers,
Firstly, thank you to all the parents who came with us on our trip to Trerice today, without
them, we would not have been able to go.
We were unable to do the workshop we had planned to do, however, the children had
a great day, trying on chain mail, playing with spinning tops, brass rubbing, trying on
Tudor clothes and making detailed drawings of the beautiful ceilings in the building.
I am not setting any homework over the holidays, but the children should continue with
their daily reading and record it in their Reading Records.
I hope you have a lovely break and we will see you back here on Tuesday 4th November.
Thank you.
Mrs Burns

Dear Parents and Carers,
As you probably know, we were unable to do our workshop at Trerice today.
We will refund the £3 you have paid for this on Tuesday when we return to school.
Thank you.

Dear Parents and Carers,
Firstly I would just like to give you an up-date about Mrs Willetts. Unfortunately, she is not well enough to return to school yet. She will be off for at least 4 more weeks. I know she misses the children and we all miss her and wish her a speedy recovery.
This week we have been looking at fractions in maths. Can your child show you how to divide a shape or group of objects in half or even quarters? Perhaps they could show you how we use quarters to tell the time.
In literacy, we have almost finished our information leaflets about materials. The children have researched materials and thought really carefully about how to lay out the information so that the reader finds it useful and easy to understand.
We devised experiments in science to test the properties of different materials, e.g. waterproof, strong, flexible.
Next week we will be going to town on Tuesday morning and to Trerice on Thursday, so we have a very exciting end of term. Your child will have a letter in their bag today about the Trerice trip. Please return the slip and payment as soon as possible.
As always, if you need to discuss anything, please come in and see me or email me on penhaligon@perranporth.cornwall.sch.uk .
Thank you.
Mrs Burns
