Hello and welcome to Class 9's webpage!

In our class we love to learn, laugh and discover more about the world through wonderful, fun and inspiring opportunities and experiences. We aim to inspire one another and support each other too. Sometimes learning can be challenging but we aim to achieve and progress with our efforts being the best that we can be- putting 100% into everything that we attempt!
Together, we develop and grow into confident learners with smiles upon our faces!

 We are a fantastic team and we are always proud of what we do in our learning!

Hi everyone, I hope that you are all safe and well and that you've enjoyed the summer holidays. We are just about ready to go back to school and I am super excited to meet you all and start our learning journey together in Class 9.

We shall be reading the 'Hobbit' for our first class book. It would be lovely if you could get to know this story or look up what it is all about perhaps by reading the blurb...If you're unfamiliar with the story can you guess what it going to be about just from reading the blurb?

Have you been practising your times tables? TT Rockstars is always a good place to start! I have added some times tables for you to print off if you wish to help you get back into the swing of things. They don't need to be handed in when you come back- they are just for practising at home.

Enjoy your final week of the summer holidays and  stay safe. I am really looking forward to seeing you all on Tuesday 1st September. 

Mrs Hatton
