Families Learning Together is back with another new and exciting course for our wonderful Year 5 and Year 6 parents. Starting on Thursday 19th September 2024 @1pm in the Key Stage 2 Hall. This course is called 'Moving on Up' and it will be a course primarily focussed on supporting families with the changes on the horizon with children moving top of the school and ultimately high school.
There will be a focus on Maths for parents, looking at barriers to learning and creating learning opportunities at home. The joint sessions will focus on teamwork, self-esteem, STEM activities and managing emotions. We are also hoping to involve speakers from the Highschool but this will be confirmed within the first few sessions.
This is a wonderful opportunity to gain an accreditation and plenty of opportunities to work with your child along side a member of the Families Learning Together team.
On Thursday 17th October 2024, we have a representative coming in from Lovell Building group to do 3D house design with the our wonderful Oakfield Families attending our course. It will be a fantastic opportunity for pupils to get a taste of design software and creative solutions.
Please go to the staff room to meet the Lovell team @1:15pm!
