Links News 
Friday 9th May, 2025
Dear Links Families,
Tonight is the KS2 PTA disco! Thank you to all those who have supported our PTA. Their incredible hard work and fundraising all goes back to the children. Last term they bought new play equipment for the playground. If you would like to join the PTA or help at one of their events, drop them an email at ptalinksprimary@gmail.com
We are sad to announce that Coach Cardisha will be moving on, after half term. We wish her all the best in her new school and we know she will be missed. However, we are pleased to let you know that we have found her replacement. Coach Ramel will be joining us from next week, to team teach with Coach Cardisha to ensure a smooth handover. If you see him, please be sure to say hello.

Links in Action
Our Year 5 Launch Car finalist
Charlie and Kacper won second place!
Year 3 have been apple crazy! In Science they are learning about light and in Art they used light and shadow to sketch apples! They look very realistic.
This week, our Year 6 reading buddies read to our Year 6 pupils.
Reception have been re-enacting the story of the Three Billy Goats Gruff.
Year 4 were inspired by Henri Rousseau and made camouflage lizards. They had to carefully chose which colours to use to make the lizard blend into his surroundings.
Can you see the Zebra Lizard? We think Mali has done an amazing job.
Lincoln has been learning with 6P. He wrote character dialogues as Lady Macbeth and Refractions of Light in Science.
