To start our new maths topic about 2D and 3D shapes, we sorted lots of different shapes into groups.  Can you tell what our sorting criteria were?

As part of our topic, we had another parent coming to tell us about how she helps people in the St John’s Ambulance. We enjoyed hearing about what she does and loved looking at the medals she had been awarded, especially from the Queen!
