All About Hajj

Daffodil Prep Blast 🌼

Assalamu Alaikum Dear Parents and Carers,

We pray everyone’s ibadah and fasting is going well during this blessed Day of Arafah. 🌙✨

Please take a moment to read through this week’s blast to see what your children have been learning and enjoying at school 📚😊

🕐 Year 1:

Our young learners have extended their understanding of time by learning how to read "quarter to" on the clock. ⏰ They’ve also been revisiting their phonics knowledge in preparation for the upcoming Phonics Screening Check next week. Great job, Year 1! 🌟

🎨 Year 2/3:

In Art, the children have been exploring the creative world of weaving 🧶 and have also enjoyed crafting various types of flowers 🌸. In RE, we’ve been learning about the significance of Hajj and the Day of Arafah 🕋. In Science, we’re continuing our fascinating journey into the topic of light and dark 💡🌑.

➗ Year 4/5:

This week, the children have been consolidating their understanding of place value and number writing to build fluency in maths 🔢. They have also been practising their times tables in preparation for the upcoming check next week. Keep it up! 💪

⚖ Year 2/3 Maths:

The students have continued working on measurement, now focusing on capacity and problem-solving 🧪. Next week, they’ll be challenged to fill containers with specific amounts using labelled jugs—fun, practical, and a little tricky! 😄

🏫 Whole School:

All classes have been learning about the pilgrimage of Hajj, and students have worked together to build each stage of the journey 🛕✨. These wonderful creations will be displayed proudly in school!
