Room 16
Hello!
We have really enjoyed our week in Room 16. We have been learning lots of new things. We both like reading our new book The Wild Robot. We have been working on creating a survival guide for Roz the Robot to help keep her safe in the wild. During ICT, we also researched different types of grammar to use on our group posters.
I loved PE because we were playing football and I was the PE helper this week – Ruby
I enjoyed learning how to carry numbers while doing standard written method sums with Miss Campbell – Harper
Thank you for reading.

Welcome to Room 16!
Our first couple of weeks in Room 16 have been super busy!
We began by working on our rights as students and completing our class charter. We also started our class novel The Wild Robot and have been using reading strategies such as summarising and visualisation. In maths, we’ve been revising our times tables and have started looking at place value to begin with.
Every week, some of our students will be telling you about what work they have completed, enjoyed or done well in.

“I really liked our ICT lesson where we completed group research for our grammar posters.” – Poppy

Room 21’s Awesome blog
Last week in Numeracy, we focused on data handling, line graphs and explored the mean,median,mode and range.
For PE last week, we did belly baseball,capture the flag,rounders and rugby. We joined in with room 23.
For writing, we wrote a narrative piece based on the rooftops in Paris. This links with our class novel The Rooftoppers.
For Art, we did a perspective piece of art. It looks like we are looking up at the buildings in Paris.

Room 15 W/B 24.08.26
Room 15 have started reading ‘The Worries’ as our modelling block. We have been using the reading strategies, prediction and scanning. In numeracy we have been revising rounding to 10 and 100 and using our knowledge and skills to round to 1000. We have started looking at the changing states of water in science and are looking forward to conducting practical activities to develop our understanding.
We are currently updating our Glow passwords but we hope to be up and running on Google Classroom next week. ‘Team 15’ has been created on Google Classroom and invites have been sent to the children via email. We we hopefully accept these during our ICT lesson on Monday.

Room 7’s Weekly Blog
Hello to all our Room 7 families and friends!
Welcome to our classroom blog!
This week, we have been showcasing our numeracy skills by working with numbers from 0-100, and beyond, by counting, ordering, working on our place value knowledge and finding 1 more/1 less from a number.
Today, we had our first visit to the school library since starting p2. We will visit the library every Friday and the books we choose will be taken home to enjoy and are to be returned the following Friday to be exchanged for a new book.
Take a look at us in action…

Room 18
Thank you for reading!
by Georgia and Anayah
In Room 18 this week we have been looking at Bar charts using skittles and Line graphs using our class data. We started our class novel “The House with chicken legs” which looks at a house that always moves around! During our Chromebook time, we researched characters in our book such as Baba yaga. We looked at what she does and who she is. In Science with Mrs Campbell, we looked at labelling classroom objects in French and started our learning on the water cycle. In writing, we looked at our 5 senses and how they can help us to describe a scene in a story. After this, we wrote all the adjectives we heard while listening to a description. We have also visited our school library.
Our Week in Room 8
August 28, 2026 by Miss Napier | 0 comments
We’ve had a super busy and fun week in Room 8. Here’s a snapshot of what the pupils remember doing most:
- Starting a block of badminton during PE
- Using playdough, scrabble tiles, sand trays and playing Hedbanz for spelling
- Reading more of our wordless book ‘Tuesday’ – the frogs in the book are getting up to so much mischief!
- Helping to build our ‘Reading Garden’ arch for the classroom. We’re hoping it will be finished by the end of next week and we can post a photo of it!
- Creating our Class Charter by studying each Right we’re going to include. We should hopefully have it completed by next week too.
- We also had our first assembly and managed to earn 4 PROUD clouds for our singing, dancing and listening!

Room 4
The children are continuing to settle well into Room 4 and are becoming more confident with our new classroom routines.
In Literacy, P2 have been consolidating the ‘th’ and ‘ng’ phonemes. They enjoyed working with partners to sound out and create words containing these sounds. P1 have been exploring rhyming words and syllables, enjoying fun activities to develop their listening and sound awareness.
In Numeracy, P1 have been learning about Greedy Zero and Penguin One through stories and active number formation activities, as well as practising in their jotters. P2 have been working with numbers to 50, focusing on ordering numbers, finding the number before and after, and completing missing number sequences.
Thank you for reading our blog. Have a lovely weekend!
