All about castles
This week we have had some great experiences and activities to begin our expedition ’What lies within the castle walls’.
We really enjoyed a visit from our expert Mr Lamb. He taught us lots of new information about castles and let us throw ’rocks’ at castle walls to see which castle is the strongest when attacked.
A huge thank you to Mr Lamb – we had a great morning.
Tell me a dragon…..
We have had an exciting Hook Week so far in Year One. A dragon came to visit our classroom….
We have also been designing and describing our very own dragons……..
Drafting our dragon eye
We have all worked really hard this morning drawing our first draft of a dragon eye. An amazing effort from everyone in Class 3……Well done.

Dress Up Day – Immersion Week
As part of our immersion week, we are asking the children to come to school on Friday 9th September dressed as someone who may have lived or worked in a castle – people like servants, kings and queens, princesses, court jesters, knights etc
Please don’t feel you need to spend lots of money on these at short notice, it may be a costume you already have at home, a mask you can print and make from the internet or there are lots of crafty ideas online too. As part of our immersion week we will be making crowns etc also, so every child will be involved.
On this day, we will be doing lots of fun activities relating to our new expedition – we will make sure we share lots of photographs and videos so that you can see what we get up to.
Thank you for your cooperation.

Miss Tinker and I are already looking forward to next year 🌟

Preparing for our sports morning
Class 3 enjoyed practising some of our sports morning activities. The children showed resilience, perseverance and demonstrated how encouraging and supportive they can be to each other.
Critique
This week Class 3 have been working hard on their Victorian school day diary entries. Today they have critiqued their work ready to make improvements.
Collaboration in Maths
Class 3 have been working with their learning partners to make equal groups and arrays in maths. It was challenging but there were lots of Resilient Rhinos and Persevering Parrots in class today!
