English: Poetry-Modelled Write
In English we wrote our own poems about Volcanoes using the structure and figurative language inspired by the poem ‘The River’ by Valerie Bloom. By writing their own poems, we hope that the children recognised the process of a different writing form while recognizing the challenges it may pose along the way.
Mathematics: 2D shapes and Symmetry
In Maths we continued exploring 2D shapes by investigating and finding lines of symmetry in 2D shapes by folding paper shapes and using the mirror. We recapped what quadrilaterals are and learned about the symmetrical properties of a kite.

Toys From Home
Due to incidences in the playground, we have decided to prohibit toys from being brought into school from home. The children have a number of playground resources to use and structured games to play during break and lunchtime. We are looking forward to seeing the children making the most of these resources and enjoying their playtimes.

School Uniform
This is a reminder that children need to come into school in the correct school uniform. Correct uniform is as follows:
- Navy jumper or cardigan with school logo
- Navy blue skirt/trousers/shorts/pinafore (no joggers, leggings or jeans)
- Black/Navy shoes (no logos)
Further details of correct uniform can be found here: https://www.ravenstoneschool.co.uk/ Order-uniform/. If your child comes in to school without proper uniform, we will contact you to ask you to bring in whatever item of clothing they are missing. Please also make sure your child's uniform is clearly labelled with their full name. Any unlabelled uniform will be placed in the lost property box, and will be donated to FoR's second hand uniform sale if not collected after a month.
