Marching into Spring!

Another busy month filled with lots of fun!

We celebrated our first Reconciliation which was a lovely evening for families and staff alike.  For those children who were absent, they will be making their Reconciliation on April 20th in school with Canon Eddie.  Please keep an eye on Twitter for photographs.

Throughout the month of Lent we have been thinking about Acts of Hope which we can do to make the world a fairer place.  Some of our ideas included donating items/money to charity, helping more at home, helping more within school and trying to think of ways to help our local community.  Canon Eddie also came in to do Stations of the Cross in the playground – this was a special treat for us.

We have been enjoying taking part in Beat the Street.  We have managed to get out a few times, walking more than 3km each time and thankfully the weather was kind to us!  We also stumbled upon a fantastic park so of course we had to have a little play – this included Miss Nisanci!

Sadly, we’ve come to the end of our novel study.  It has been AMAZING! We have taken part in so many learning experiences throughout reading this including;
Reading comprehension
Writing pieces
Art – designing our own factories and chocolate bars
Drama – creating an advert for our chocolate bar
Food and technologies – designing and making our own chocolate bar.
Making the chocolate bar was by far our FAVOURITE activity to do!  We also watched the original Charlie and the Chocolate Factory movie and made comparisons, in groups, about the book and movie.  We found a lot of similarities and differences!

As always, this is just a little snippet of what we have been learning.  We are looking forward to a well deserved break, hopefully the sun will shine for us!
