Macmillan Coffee Afternoon
The children had a lovely time at our Macmillan Coffee Afternoon, made all the more special by the parents and grandparents who came along. It was heartwarming to see our community come together in support of such a meaningful cause. Every cake shared and every penny raised helps make a difference. 🍰
RE - Learning about the books of the Bible
Year 2 Explore Place Value Through Hands-On Learning
The children have been learning about Place Value with developing confidence and great enthusiasm! We’ve been busy exploring how numbers are made and what each digit represents through a variety of fun, hands-on activities.
Using base ten blocks, counters, part-whole models and place value charts, the children have been learning to partition numbers and build numbers using concrete materials.
It’s been wonderful to see the children working together, thinking critically, and explaining their reasoning using mathematical vocabulary!
Welcome to the start of another amazing year at St. Anthony’s!
