Children in Need

Room 5 have had a busy day marking Children in Need. We all dressed up in yellow or spotty clothes and some of us even wore spotty ears and accessorised our outfits. Thank you for your fantastic efforts today, you all looked super!

We started the day off at assembly, where Mrs Robinson told us all about Children in Need and why we mark the occasion. After lunch, we attended a bake sale and got to purchase a yummy treat and enjoy it in class with our friends. To finish the day, we took part in a challenge created by our head pupils. We had to design a new Children in Need t-shirt. Here are some of our efforts below. I think they look brilliant, well done Room 5.

Thank you to all parents and carers who attended our Parents’ Evening last night. It was lovely to meet you all in person and discuss your child’s progress and learning. I hope you found the appointment informative and if you need any support or assistance in the future, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

If you purchased any books from the book fair online at home, please bring in your forms with your order details so that the correct books can be distributed when they arrive. Thank you for your cooperation with this.

Have a lovely weekend everyone! 🙂

Room 1

Good afternoon,

We have been very lucky to have a football specialist in for a block of football over the past few weeks. This week we were focusing on our dribbling skills and shooting skills. They were shown to use the side of their foot when moving with the ball and to take little touches. The boys and girls also enjoyed working in teams and scoring lots of goals at a target.

Have a great weekend!

Thank you

Mrs Ventre

Room 7

This week in Room 7…

I liked being a common word monitor and challenging people to read the common word on my lanyard. EL

I enjoyed learning to add doubles by singing the doubles song by Jack Hartman. CT

I enjoyed singing the big number song in numeracy. JM

I liked using the Chromebooks. I had to type in my username and password. It was lots of fun. AH

I enjoyed learning about Children in Need at assembly. We then went to the bake sale and I got a yummy cake. I also designed a new top for Pudsey. JS

In PE, we were using different ways to travel from one side of the mat to the other. I liked trying a forward roll. HM

In science, we have been learning about different bones in the skeleton. We learnt that the longest bone is called the femur and the smallest bone is called the stirrup. KM

In science, I learnt that animals that have a backbone are called vertebrates and animals that do not have a backbone are called invertebrates. YK

I loved having a GoNoodle brain break.  LM

Have a super weekend everyone!

Making Moons

Room 15 have been hard at work on their art project. We first of all started with a blown up balloon and covered it wtih PVA glue, water and scrap newspaper. After that, we used tissue paper to make craters and moon rocks! Today we finally got to paint our masterpieces and they have turned out amazing! Stay tuned to see the final results next week!
