• Year 2 - A fabulous end to a fantastic term

  Wed 21 Dec 2022 FProbert

  The children have been working hard right up to the very last minute. In English, they have published their letters on behalf of Greenpeace. They worked exceptionally hard to present their work using their neatest handwriting and the correct layout of a letter.

  Their Design Technology work finally came to its end with an array of some amazing glove puppets. The puppets were designed for the needs of specific clients, and the children sewed, glued and worked with great determination. The teachers and TA’s were so very proud of them all. 

  It was not all work this week. Party day on Wednesday was so sensational. There was many games, hat-making and card-making activities plus the delicious Christmas lunch! The children dressed up in their Christmassy home clothes added just the right amount of Christmas sparkle to the day.

  The Year 2 team would like to thank all the children and `parents for an amazing Autumn Term, and to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

  Thu 15 Dec 2022 Mrs Ireland

  We had great fun on Wednesday. We ate our Christmas meal wearing the hats we made and quite a few of us tried sprouts for the first time!! Well done those children!

  We all played games and thoroughly enjoyed pass the parcel and musical chairs.

  We would like to wish you all a very Merry Christmas.

• Cross Stitch Club

  Thu 15 Dec 2022 Mrs Ireland

  Some children have joined Mrs Ireland on a Monday lunchtime for the Christmas Cross Stitch Club. I thought we should show you their efforts. We all really enjoyed our weekly catch-ups as well as doing a little bit of cross stitch too!

  I'm so proud of them all and I love their Christmas cards

  

• Year 6 Christmas Party

  Wed 14 Dec 2022

  After our festive lunch, we had a Christmas quiz and party games... 

  

• Year 3 - computer skills!

  Mon 12 Dec 2022

  Year 3 have been practising their super computer skills this week.

   

  We carried out a science experiment to find the strongest type of magnet, and then used a program called 2Calculate to create a spreadsheet of our results and a colourful bar graph.

   

  We have been designing adverts and packaging in English and DT and we used a program called 2Design to decorate the packaging on a 3D net which we printed and constructed.

   

  Well done to the children for their hard work 

  

• Year One

  Fri 09 Dec 2022 Mrs Ireland

  Over the last couple of days we have made a chair for Baby Bear. Unfortunately, Goldilocks broke his old one!

  The children have learnt so many skills and today we put these into use. They had great fun and loved testing the strength of the chair by sitting Baby Bear on the seat.

  Fri 09 Dec 2022

  This week, we used our nature reserve time to create some art using natural found items. In maths, we began to apply our calculation skills to a range of word problems. As part of our English sessions, we have begun to include direct speech in our fiction writing.

  

• Year 2 Christmas is coming!

  Thu 08 Dec 2022 FProbert

  There is definitely a feel of Christmas in the air. After the success of last week’s fayre, the frosty winter mornings and Christmas trees all around the school, the children are ready for the Christmas festivities to begin!

  However, they have had to work hard in all of their lessons. In ICT, they have been learning about spreadsheets where they were using the total button to add up costs of data. In English, they have written some outstanding letters to a child who spotted a polar bear on the pirate ship! After reading the book ‘Dear Greenpeace’, the children were able to give advice and information to help the child look after the polar bear! Some children used talking-tins to help them with their writing.

  Thursday was sadly the last of our PE sessions with Emily and her team. The children had a fun time being Christmas trees and fruit! You will need to talk to the children about those!

  The children have worked exceptionally hard this week with preparations for their ‘Christmas Around the World performance’. A big shout-out to all the year 2 parents, who supplied some amazing costumes –the children looked fantastic! The children shared their performances with the rest of the school, so that they were in tip-top form to perform to the parents on Friday 9^th December. The Year 2 staff are so very, very proud of all the children. Fantastic performance!
