Last week we enjoyed a visit from our Campus Police Officer, PC Mitchell. Before the holiday we were learning about people who help us. We had lots of questions ready for PC Mitchell and were mostly interested in her uniform and where she gets it from. We loved her demonstration with the handcuffs on Miss Regan!

   

    

Our story of the week has been The Snail on the Whale. As you will see from our faces we loved completing an experiment to see how whale blubber works. We put our hands into cold water for as long as we could and then tried this again with Vaseline on our hands. The Vaseline acts as an insulator, the same way blubber does for a whale. We could then hold our hands in the cold water for longer!

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

    

    

We are coming to the end of our block of Gymnastics. We have learned lots about different ways of moving, jumping and balancing on various types of equipment.

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

    

On Friday we learned about The King’s Coronation both in class and in assembly. We enjoyed listening to the story, The King’s Pants and then had lots of fun designing a new pair of pants for The King. We have also been decorating crowns and during our writing lesson we created our own crown and then wrote about it using some amazing adjectives!

   

   

   

   

    

We enjoyed some time exploring in the woodland on Friday afternoon and also threw our seed bombs which we made the previous week. Fingers crossed some beautiful flowers appear soon!
