Spring Term 2013

Form III have returned from Christmas refreshed and ready for learning!

The information below is intended to give you a little more detail about the kind of work Form III will be doing during the Spring Term.  As ever, if you have any queries, please do not hesitate to come and ask me.

I have rejigged the timetable slightly and the new one is up on the notice board.  Our spelling test is now on a Tuesday afternoon and comprehension homework will be sent home once a week, usually on a Wednesday.  We will also start developing our verbal reasoning skills in class on a Thursday.
