Croeso i Dosbarth 8!
Welcome to Class 8!
 

 Welcome back to the start of a new academic year. We hope that all pupils had a wonderful summer holidays and have settled into their classes this week.

This term in Years 3 and 4, our topic is ‘Protect our Planet’.  

The pupils will be at the heart of their learning as they will be sharing their ideas with their class on the things they would like to learn. The pupils’ ideas will then be used to ensure there is full coverage of the curriculum through the six areas of learning including: Health and Wellbeing, Language, Literacy and Communication, Mathematics and Numeracy, Science and Technology, Expressive Arts and Humanities.
