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!

Class Six have already started thinking about our final product. We have had so much fun playing with shrinky dink and creating keyrings with our names on the.
We have had a lovely week in our crew reading books with our partners and looking at our beautiful work. We enjoyed our story time and a warm cup of hot chocolate during our outdoor crew session.
Class Five have been busy in computing learning how to use digital devices to take photographs. We also learnt when it is okay to take someones photograph.
I’m looking forward to seeing your completed ‘photography bingo boards’!

Crew Goodyer have enjoyed the outdoors this week creating some beautiful Autumn leaf collages with Mrs Jackson.
Children in Reception have really enjoyed listening to the story of ‘The Bog Baby’. They have been making links to being kind and have noticed all of the kind actions of characters in the story. The story inspired them to draw pictures and make some amazing clay models.
We had an amazing day at Conisbrough Castle and learnt so much about it’s history from our expert guide Janet.
We explored inside the stone keep and saw Lord Hamlin and Lady Isabelle’s private rooms and chapel.
We even climbed to the top to see how far the guards could see when they were defending the castle.
After lunch we listened to a story about castle life and heard about the people who would have lived and worked there, we all enjoyed dressing up and getting into character.
We’ve learnt so much to help us along in our expedition ‘From Rags to Riches: What Lies Within the Castle Walls?’
During crew week, Class Six asked ourselves “Does crew stop at the school gates?” We decided to be Norton Book Fairies and between Y2 delivered 20 books around Norton. These were left around the village for people to find and take home.
We hope everyone is enjoying our books and leaving them around the village for other people to find!!
