Our first week back…

3rd November 2021Gemma Tinker

We have had such a great first few days back after our half term break. We have had a fabulous few spooky days, a Halloween disco, a new spooky Maths area to create spells – we needed to count ingredients into little cauldrons! We have enjoyed reading Room On The Broom and The Gruffalo!

Artists in the making …

3rd November 2021Laura Parsons

Class five are showing their resilience this afternoon. They have been studying the art work of Quentin Blake and are now drawing themselves in the same style. I can’t wait to see the finished product!

This week in Class 4

3rd November 2021Anna Wojcik

We started our school week with a Halloween disco and had a great time when dancing and singing songs together. This week we look at the artwork of Quentin Blake and learn to draw characters in his style. On Wednesday we had our school vistor who trained us to be a First Air Super Stars!

Mini First Aiders in Year 2

2nd November 2021Nicola Robson

Class 5 and 6 were very lucky to be visited today by Zoe from Mini First Aid. They learnt lots of new skills including how to phone 999 and all about the recovery position. It was great to see them all engaged and working together in their crews. Thank you for an amazing day Zoe!

Random acts of kindness in Nursery

20th October 2021Jane Murray

In Nursery we have been thinking about what it means to be kind. As part of our expedition, we decided to make some beautiful pictures for Mrs Greening and Mrs Smith who work so hard in our school office. The children loved creating and presenting the artwork and everyone agreed that our acts of kindness made everyone feel so happy.

A great last week of term

15th October 2021Claire Goodyer

In maths and P.E we had fun racing and learning about ordinal numbers.

We had a visit from the school nurse who reminded us how to keep ourselves safe.

In our history case study we have been using different ways to research our ‘Champion from History’ Rosa Parks.

We guessed the weight of the giant pumpkin in crew.

To finish a lovely week we had a visit from Class 1 who chose Class 3 to receive their ‘random act of kindness. They had been making crispy buns to celebrate being kind. We enjoyed them whilst watching a spooky cartoon as our reward for working hard this term.

Class Two are so Kind

15th October 2021Laura Parsons

Our day was brightened in Class Five today as we received a special delivery of crispy buns just to brighten our day from our friends in class two. What a kind thing to do – they were delicious! You must have worked so hard making them, we really appreciate your random act of kindness.

Crew Pumpkin Competition!

15th October 2021Laura Parsons

We have had the best time this morning in year two. We spent the morning designing and creating our pumpkins ready to be judged by Miss Tunney!

We designed them and then decided as a crew which design we wanted to carve.

Next came the messy bit …

Finally, we carved our designs ready to be judged.

Miss Tunney then came into our community meeting to decide the winner. Each crew had to explain their design.

The winning crew was …. CREW PARSONS!!

Their design had the word crew with a different circle to represent each member of their crew. What a great idea!🎃

Rosa Parks fact gathering

13th October 2021Anna Wojcik

Class 4 have been learning about champions throughout history. This week we learn about Rosa Parks. We use information technology to search for some interesting facts and share them with our learning partners. We have also enjoyed our active phonics this week!

Little Artists in the making…..

13th October 2021Emma Powell

We looked at the large tree in our garden area. We noticed that the leaves are still green and are all still on the tree. We wonder what it will look like when we come back to school after the half term break?
