What a fantastic and fun-filled week we had in P2a for our last week of term! Our class has been buzzing with creativity, collaboration, and a strong sense of community as we explored learning both inside and outside the classroom.
We ended off the week with an Easter egg hunt that had everyone excited and eager to work together. Not only was it a sweet treat, but it also gave us a great opportunity to practice our sense-making and problem-solving skills as we followed clues and searched high and low!
We also had a super fun dance party with 2b, where we let loose and enjoyed some joyful movement. Dancing together encouraged creative thinking, and we loved expressing ourselves through music and rhythm. We even had a little boogie in our own classroom with our teachers – such a fun way to build confidence and connection!
As part of our health and wellbeing, we spent time outdoors practicing our ball skills, showing determination and working on our coordination and teamwork. While we were outside, we also explored the changing season by looking for signs of spring. We spotted daffodils, budding trees, and fresh green leaves — perfect for sparking curiosity and encouraging observation.
Pupil Voice: “Look, I see yellow” “I have found new leaves on the trees”
In the classroom, we put our critical thinking to the test by diving into subtraction. We worked hard, helping each other understand tricky problems and celebrating our progress along the way.
A highlight of the week was our group work on school values. We had meaningful conversations about respect, determination, and safety, and created colourful posters to share what these values mean to us. It was wonderful to see how everyone contributed their ideas and worked together — such great collaboration!
Pupil Voice: “Its really important to show respect” “Being respectful helps us be kind”
All these activities helped us develop our metaskills — skills that support all learning. Whether it was creative thinking during dance and art, sense-making while searching for signs of spring, or critical thinking during subtraction, we were always learning and growing.
