Class 1 Visit to Great Wood Farm
Class 1 had a
lovely time
at Great Wood Farm this morning, looking at the sheep and new born lambs. They enjoyed watching the lambs leaping around and feeding from their mothers and felt how soft the lambs woolly coat was when they stroked them. They even had the chance to help the shepherd feed two cade lambs that were very hungry. They then made their own sheep picture using wool and straw, before a final look at the sheep and a splash in the puddles.
Thank you Great Wood Farm for a lovely visit.
Mother’s Day Cards
I wonder which lucky Mums will be receiving these cards on 19th March?
Papier-mâché
Art club have used papier-mâché to create these beautiful bowls.
Class 3 Assembly
Class 3 were excited to share their own version of Newsround. They did the whole production themselves deciding on the content, writing their own reports and presenting the show. They covered a wide range of subjects including Plastic Pollution, Chinese New Year, the Weather in French, World Book Day and covering what they have been learning in RE.
Well Done Class 3!
Marble Runs
Today Class 4 were making bridge marble runs
World Book Day- Chapter Four
The class dressed in a variety of characters, mainly from the novels recently read in class. They adopted the characters’ traits too, one deciding to be mute like Kester in The Wildness by Piers Torday (although this didn’t last for long) and another child brought in the trainers that had fallen on them from the sky just like the character Stanley Yelnats in Louis Sacher’s Holes. They engaged in the World Book Day ‘live lesson’, enjoyed reading Aquilla magazines in pairs and even created a sound track to a passage from Katherine Rundall’s novel Sky Steppers.
World Book Day- Chapters Two and Three
Class 3 had a superb day celebrating World Book day 2023! 
It was wonderful to see the range of book characters arriving in class this morning – well done everyone!
We watched the live lesson at 11am and joined with many other schools across the UK, where we celebrated the joy of books, authors and reading for pleasure.
What a fantastic day, thank you Class 3 – I hope this will have created a happy memory for you.
World Book Day- Chapter One
Class 1 have loved dressing up for World Book day and all looked amazing. We have enjoyed sharing, reading and talking about our favourite books. We also took part in a book scavenger hunt to explore all the books we have available to share in the classroom.
