Class 3 worked really well as a team today to solve clue so they could complete the treasure hunt. First they were given a printed Easter egg with a riddle to solve. This lead them to a multi-choice Biblical question. Once they had decided which answer was correct, they solved a further riddle to find letters in the final clue. What ‘eggcellent’ (sorry for the pun) detectives they make!

Chocolate Nests
Class 1 had a wonderful, and messy, time making chocolate nests this morning! They knew that we had to measure and mix the ingredients. We also knew to melt the chocolate and butter before mixing. I think they particularly enjoyed licking their bowls and spoons afterwards.
Class 1 Treasure Hunt
The children in Class 1 found a letter from the Easter bunny waiting for them when they got to school this morning. This led to a very energetic hunt around school. Each egg gave us a clue as to where to look next and also gave us a letter from the alphabet. Having found all the clues we realised we could spell the word Easter. Then Mrs Johnson gave the children some Easter eggs as a treat for their hard work with their Easter scenes and the egg hunt.
Easter Scenes
Wow! What super entries we’ve had for our Brain Builder challenge to ‘create an Easter scene’. Class 1 loved looking at all the different ideas and the range of materials that had been used, when they went to see the entries from the different classes.
It was very tricky to judge as there were super entries from children in all three classes.
Well done to everyone for all the effort and creativity that you put into this. They were amazing!!
Roman Villas
Today, Class 3 added the finishing touches to their Roman villa models. Don’t they look splendid!
Mosaic Tiles
Class 3 first designed and then created their design with mosaic tiles.
The following day they grouted them to complete their coaster or place mat.
I am sure that you will agree they have created some marvelous products.
Egg Disappears
The children in Class 1 were very surprised today to find that the mystery egg had disappeared and in its place was this note! Who or what is Maisy we wonder? Whoever or whatever she is, we clearly did the right thing by taking such good care of her precious egg.
Polling Day
Today was Polling Day at Dudley House. We voted for our School Council. The children listened to the various candidates as they gave us their ‘pitches’ on Zoom this morning during assembly .
Class 1 were first to cast their votes and enjoyed visiting the Polling station set up in the hall by Mrs Sellars.
The children had to give their name and class to an ‘official’ and received their voting papers. They then went into the polling booth and chose their candidates. Finally they got to post their completed ballot papers into the ballot box. Some children from Class 1 even got to submit ‘postal votes’ via Email as they’re at home today and joined us remotely.
We await the announcement of the result by the Returning Officer later today. What a great experience for the children.
Well done to all the children who were elected onto the School Council today.
Initially there were going to be two representatives per class, but as votes for second place were tied in each class, Mrs Johnson decided to have three Councillors per class instead.
What’s Inside the Egg?
The children in Class 1 have been fascinated by the mysterious egg that we found at school on Monday. Today they have all painted a picture of, and written about, what they think is inside it! I wonder if anyone is right?
Spring Creations
Inspired by our lovely Spring walk to the park yesterday, Class 1 have enjoyed doing some Spring crafts today. They have made egg box daffodils and some blossom trees. They used paint, glue, cardboard tubes and coloured paper. They’re very pleased with their pretty work.
