We thoroughly enjoyed our return to woodland this week! We had some time for free play then looked at our planters and started to plan what we will plant in them!

 

We are continuing with our weekly Mental Health walks and chats to break up our day when we have a long learning session.

Spectacular Space Solo Talks, Brilliant Book Week and Amazing Assembly! Week Beginning 28.02.22

Wow- what a week in p4b!

 

I would just like to start by saying a huge thank you to all pupils and parents for the time, effort and creativity put into our Space Solo Talks.

The children were absolutely fabulous at clearly and confidently sharing facts about their favourite astronauts.

 

I would also like to say how wonderful it was to catch up with families at Parents Evening- I feel so lucky and proud to have such a hard working, resilient and amazing class. It was a pleasure to share their stories and successes with you all 🙂

 

Please enjoy the photos and videos below of our busy Space work, World Book Day activities and football skills!

There are lots of photos on Crookfur Twitter too 🙂

 

Finally, we made a return to in person assemblies today! The class were overjoyed to get together with their p3 and p4 friends, sing the school song and receive some achievement certificates.

Have a fantastic weekend,

Mrs McGarvey
