Date: 22nd Sep 2022 @ 9:20am
Year 4 have been extremely busy and here are a few photos showing their 'gorilla' research and the beginning of their facts files. We have also been really impressed by the children's detailed and individual approaches to their Maths journaling. In Computing, Year 4 have been creating their own webpages all to do with books they would recommend and on Monday, it will be our first brass lesson!
The children are getting used to their new monitor roles and at the start of the day, the children choose the CARE value we should focus on for the day. We have a Secret Student who is revealed at the end of the day if they have shown this value. Lots of stickers have been given out so far! :)

Thank you Gwen!

We had a great time with Mr Hadfield today at Forest Schools in our incredible school grounds. We learnt about homes and habitats, made a big nest and took on the role of parent and baby birds, built a home for our Gruffalo, went on a bug hunt, practised mindfulness in our quiet spots, used Dragon Sneeze fire steels and toasted marshmallows on an open fire pit to name but a few things! Team work, sharing and gratitude were key elements of our learning today.
Thank you for sending children in with a spare pair of footwear and long sleeved tops and trousers.

Year 1 visit to Year 2, by Miss Jones
Date: 8th Jul 2022 @ 3:36pm
Yesterday we had our transition morning for next year. As the children soon realised, nothing much is changing except our classroom! We had a lovely time exploring our new room and they all decided they loved the green walls!! We enjoyed being creative, turning a black dot into something amazing! It was so lovely to see their imaginations take them in different directions and the work they produced was magical! They were all at ease and seemed more than ready for their Year 2 journey.
We are looking forward to another wonderful year with them.
