Amber Class
Our teacher is: Mrs Adams.
On a Friday afternoon, Mrs Organ teaches us RE and SMSC.
Welcome to Amber Class!
We are a Class of Year 4 and 5 pupils. During our time in Class 4, we get to have lots of fun experiences, including Bellboating (in the summer months), attend residential and perform in our End of summer show! It is also the Year 5 children's final year at school, so we work really hard and we are really busy preparing for middle school!
Things to remember!
On Mondays and Wednesdays, children need to remember to bring in their PE kits. For the reaminder of the year, these lessons will be outside, so please ensure your child has the appropriate clothing for the weather.
Every day, your child should bring into school:
- Reading book
- Water bottle
- Coat (weather depending)
