Focus Friday
Today we enjoyed working together in our Focus Friday groups to learn about SHANARRI. It is an acronym for words about our wellbeing : safe, healthy, achieving, nurtured, respected, responsible, included.
Secret Santa!
It was really exciting to finally open our Secret Santa presents. A big thank you to everyone, they are much appreciated as you can see in the photos.
Welcome Back
It was lovely to see the whole class back to school today and hear about all the things that we’ve been up to over the Christmas period.
There are lots of exciting things to look forward to this term and today we opened the Christmas cards from our friends in Cannes.
Bonne année à tous!
Planetarium Lesson
On Thursday 15th November, Harry Rose brought the planetarium into school. We had a fantastic morning finding out about the stars, planets, moons and constellations and he told an amazing ancient story about how the constellations were named.
Eco-Schools audit
While the Primary 6s have been doing their Playleader training, the P7s have been carrying out an Eco-Schools audit of everything that we do in our school and have been thinking of some actions that we need to do next.
Christmas play preparations
Last week we started to work on our Christmas play. Izzy came to help us with the script and we’ve started practising our songs. It’s looking good already!
Jigsaw health and wellbeing
Since Term 1 the whole school has been using the new Jigsaw resources to learn about lots of health and wellbeing issues and practices.
This week in groups of 4 we had to complete tasks, involving all group members, but one couldn’t get out of their seat, one couldn’t see, another couldn’t hear and one had their hand behind their back. We thought about how we can enable everyone to join in and contribute.
Kenyan Penpals
During the October holidays Ms Scanlan received an email from Lomayana school, full of wonderful messages and pictures for the class. It is always lovely to see the beautiful designs and drawings that they send and it’s great to hear back from them all and see how they are getting on.
Here is a photo of the class with their messages.
Visit from French Teachers from Cannes
This week Suzy Drogy-Meier and Yann Gueyffier from Cannes came to visit our school on Tuesday and Wednesday. They really enjoyed their visit and loved meeting the class and all the staff. They visited lots of classes and enjoyed working with the children, having conversations in French, reading books and helping our class write to their new pen pals in French. We’re looking forward to working together this year.
