Year 1 enjoyed a treat today when Mrs Wojcik brought in a spinach cake she had made. Most of us had never had a green cake before and were surprised by how delicious it was!
Thank you Mrs Wojcik, we’d love it if you could share the recipe with us.
Class 3 have been on a fact finding mission this afternoon, finding and reading interesting facts about carrots to add to our anchor charts. It was lovely to see how confidently they applied their phonics skills to the challenge.
They also learnt a new skill and got to grips with a new piece of equipment whilst peeling the carrots.
In art we looked carefully at the detail on the carrots when completing our line drawings. We critiqued our first drafts thinking about how we could improve them.
We’re looking forward to completing our carrotfact files
What a great way to end our week, we added our first vegetable to our keyrings. After a week of learning all about spinach, critiquing and redrafting our outwork we were finally ready to transfer our final drafts onto the shrinky dink paper. It was so exciting watching them shrink in the oven and adding them to our keyrings.
We have been busy today thinking about our first vegetable. We have researched spinach and added the information we have found to our graffiti wall. We looked at a model text and identified the important features and we all showed courage and tried some spinach! We are looking forward to getting our next drafts of our art work onto shrinky dink paper and add it to our final products!

Last week Class Six had a blast kicking off our spring expedition “Ready, Steady, Grow! How will I be the healthiest version of me?” trying a rang of different fruits. From oranges and bananas to passionfruit and avacado, we tried it all. The children showed courage, trying fruits they weren’t sure about or didn’t think they would like.
We have been showing courage this morning tasting lots of different fruits that we have read about in Handa’s Surprise. We thought carefully and used our anchor chart to describe the different fruits.
We pulled some funny faces trying some of the sour fruits!

We had great fun making our catapults last week during our family learning. This week we have been writing our science investigation ready to test them …
Y2 have kicked off our Autumn expedition in style with a fun filled week of activites. To start the week, we had an exciting visit from an expert – Mr Lamb!!
We have been artists. We spent the week creating stained glass windows, castle flags, clay shields and tissue paper torches. We have also been looking at the story of Cinderella, thinking about the characters and of course Cinderella’s glass slippper. To finish the week we threw a party fit for princes and princesses – all the children came dressed to impress with their own crowns and played party games, ate buns and revealed our title and guiding question.
It has been lovely getting to know the children over the last two weeks and we are so excited to full jump into our expedition!
The first half of class five have been busy understanding recipes, reading scales and baking delicious chocolate chip cookies. They did a fantastic job.

We had a fun and busy morning in Class 6 baking delicious chocolate chip muffins whilst consolidating our learning on measures and reading scales. Great work class 6!
