It was lovely to be able to share some of the new things that we are doing in Primary and to hear your feedback which we are working on. As requested we are currently looking at adding teacher\u2019s roles to Dojo so that you are able to identify our teaching and learning assistants as well as specialist teachers who you may not be so familiar with. We are also working on producing end of year learning objectives in Reading, Writing and Maths for each year group so that you have a better understanding of what your children will be learning throughout the year. In the near future we will be offering a Maths workshop which will give parents the opportunity to gain knowledge of the calculation strategies that we use for the four operations throughout Primary. Other workshops such as spelling strategies will follow later in the year.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_gallery type=&#8221;image_grid&#8221; images=&#8221;10686,10687,10689,10691&#8243; img_size=&#8221;medium&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">During Friday\u2019s celebration assembly we announced our Eco Warriors for the year.
