Our topic this term is 'Vikings'!
This topic will look at the Viking invasion of Britain, and how the Vikings changed Britain, its language and how they settled alongside the Anglo-Saxons.

In early June 2024 the Year 4s will be doing their 'Multiplication Check'. They are given 6 seconds to answer timestables questions up to 12 x 12.
It is therefore really important to try to find time at home for your child to practise their timestables as practising them frequently is the only way to establish fluency in this area.
We are of course practicing these in school, but time and resources are limited and so individual practice at home is crucial.
I have linked to some resources at the bottom of this page which can be used to practise times tables fluency at home.
