Our lovely Student Teacher-Mrs Chitty.

Mrs Anna Chitty will be in Room 5 for the next two weeks and will teaching 'sole charge' in Room 5 for 3 days this week.
She is looking forward to teaching a unit addressing the possibility of life on the Moon.
The children have responded really positively to the study of 'habitable' planets-so I look forward to the insights made by the children.
