Class 3 enjoyed participating in a variety of activities at Kesteven Rugby Club yesterday. They were extending their rugby skills with support from the School Games organiser Terry Plumb. The children worked really well as a team, listened carefully to instructions, tried their best and supported each other as well as children from another school. It was lovely to see them enjoying being active outdoors in the sunshine and having fun.
This morning, prospective school councillors addressed the whole outlining why people should vote for them. After the election addresses, pupils cast their vote at the polling station.
Votes have been counted and results of the School Council elections will be announced on Monday.
The School Council decided that this year they would like to raise funds for Jeans for Genes – a charity that supports children living with genetic disorders. Pupils came to school dressed in denim and their donations raised £51.70 towards this worthwhile cause that helps provide vital care and support for affected children and their families.
Thank you everyone for your generosity.
Yesterday, Class 4 enjoyed playing on the new glockenspiels in their music lesson.
We are looking forward to developing our skills to read musical notation and played tuned percussion so that we can make beautiful music together.
In the first PE session of the year children were taught the importance of a game plan and how to outwit an attacker.
On Friday, Class 1 enjoyed creating colourful fish and salt dough animals.
Today Key Stage 2 talked about gravity and air resistance. They made tissue paper parachutes, creating a fair test by only changing one variable. They then used their observation skills to see which parachute worked best.
The children were delighted to receive a thank you card and letter this morning from Buckingham Palace. King Charles had sent them to say thank you to the children for the colourful cards they created to him for his Coronation.
