Our first week of school was filled with lots of fun, outdoor learning, health and well-being and expressive arts. We familiarised ourselves with lots of new routines, including a new start time and lots of hand washing! We also just enjoyed being back in a school environment with our friends.

Maths About Me

We explored the Maths that would be used to describe ourselves by answering questions such as:

• How many days have you been alive?

• What height are you?

• How many legs are in your family?

We had lots of fun using practical Maths and seeing if we had any similarities or differences with our classmates.

Outdoor Learning

We have an amazing outdoor space at Cross Arthurlie and we have embraced it during the good weather. We learned more about our teacher through a scavenger hunt where we had to find hidden wood slices. We also completed in a S.T.E.M challenge to build the best catapult from limited resources. We could use as many natural resources as we liked. At the end of the challenge, we lined up and tested them all in a competition. Every catapult worked amazingly!
