This week in Belted Galloway

This week, the Belted Galloway children will be finishing off the original compositions they started before the half term holiday, entitled 'My Inspiration', to enter the Rotary Club competition. They will have the chance to proof-read, edit and draft their work, before presenting their final copies. In Maths, the children will be focusing on subtraction this week, tightening up their written methods and extending these to using decimal numbers, as well as consolidating mental methods. PE, as always, takes place on Wednesday and Fridays, but Mr Spurrier also works with a small group of Y5 and 6 children who have put themselves forward to be playground leaders. Before lunch time on Friday, they work together to plan and manage activities for the younger children, led by Mr Spurrier. The difference they are making on the playground already is really clear to see.
