Hello and welcome to our blog.

We have been busy this week.

In PE we enjoyed using the cycle track for athletics.  We turned it into a race track and took part in  team races and relay races as well as completing an obstacle course. We are hoping to improve our running speeds over the next few weeks.

In Outdoor Learning we were delighted the sun was shining (for a change!). We spent time learning about various habitats that exist in our woodlands and what animals may live there. We then created various food chains.

In Literacy we have been learning about persuasive techniques that are used in persuasive writing and have been creating our own written pieces.   Excellent persuasive phrases and emotive language used!

Have a lovely weekend
