Good afternoon everybody.
It has been a wonderful day welcoming you all back into school. We have spent time with lots of happy children exploring their new classrooms and outdoor area.
We are looking forward to an enjoyable year learning lots of new things.

Another great effort from the children and families in Class 1 this week. I am really looking forward to sharing the fabulous story sacks that have been made as part of our home learning expedition. Watch this space and we will share them soon.
I apologise that the photographs on my last post are not visible. I think I know why and will sort the problem as soon as possible.
Thanks, Mrs Powell
This week we have been reading the story of The Elves and the Shoemaker. I’ve got to admit I’ve never really used this story with a class before but I think it has been one of my favourite weeks of our traditional tales expedition so far. As always I have been amazed by the response from children in Class 1. I have seen some truly wonderful activities taking place and have also seen lots of shoe designs that I would love to be able to buy in the shops!!
Here are just a few examples of our beautiful work this week:
