Easter story blog by Violet and Robyn
we have been learning all about Holy Week and the Easter story. We all have been working with p5 to learn two lovely Easter songs – ‘Easter jubilation’ and ‘sun arise’. We hope you enjoy our singing!
We have also created a basket with lots of fluffy Easter chicks, as w know Easter is a time for new life. They are so fluffy! Check out all of our photos.
Here is our summary of the Easter story by Violet and Robyn:
A long long time ago Jesus rode into Jerusalem on his donkey, everyone was waving palm tree leaves. One of his disciples told the priests where Jesus was Judaism got money for telling them were Jesus was. Jesus sat down for a special meal and told them that someone had told the priests were he was. Jesus said that Peter would deny him before the cock crows three times. Jesus broke the bread shared the wine at the last supper he told them he had been betrayed Jesus prayed in the garden of Gethsemane. Judas showed the Roman soldiers where Jesus was and they arrested Jesus. Peter said he didn’t know Jesus. The cock crowed three times. A judge called Pontus Pilate set Barrabbas free from jail instead of Jesus. Jesus carried the cross to the hill. Jesus was crucified. Jesus died the temples curtain was torn in two. Jesus was put into a tomb sealed with a large stone. On the third day,the stone was rolled away. An angel told Mary Magdalene that Jesus had risen from the dead. Jesus appeared to Mary Magdalene and the discples before going to heaven .
The Easter story means new life!

Health and wellbeing – Respected (food and culture) by Kyle Co and Natalie
We have been learning about respecting other people’s food. It means you should not make fun of other people’s food, don’t laugh at it – you could maybe taste it. We have been creating menus for different restaurants, and then making our menus into amazing Pic Collages using iPads.
We will post some photos soon.
There is a a good website here – Respect – which explains all about respect and how to show it, inspire it and how to go about it.
Aaraa, Harris & Robyn : it is really fun looking at all of other foods
Leena, Christie and Aaron: we really like learning about food and making a menu.
Coral, Violet, Gregor and Ryan:we have learned more about food.
New blog by Hannah M and Ashton
At P.E we are learning about fitness. First we play a game like tunnel tig and then we do a warm up. After that we start a course around the hall with lots of different stations. We have one minute and a half at each station and each pupil has their own fitness tracer when they record how much of each activity they have done.
Violet- I learned how to do a proper press up and fell much more confident in them.
Ryan – I found out that you need stamina for push-ups and sit-ups.
Coral- I have learned how to do lots of different things.
Niamh- Fitness is fun.
Rishi- I learned how to do a mountain climb.
Christie- I like the step ups.
Gregor- High intensity is tough but if you believe in yourself you can be able to do it.
Alfie – Me and Kyle had a good example of a press-up
Aaron- In P.E you need lots of stamina and strength.
Jenna- I learned how to mountain climb.
Lenna- I enjoy leaning mountain climb and it is a little bit tricky when you try it but when you practice more it gets easier.
Gregor – you have to eat your 5 a day to stay heathy.
Robyn-I like when we did the star jumps it was terrific.
