Today, we learned about the Good Samaritan. We learned that a ‘Good Samaritan’ is someone who is kind and unselfish towards others. We thought about different ways we could do this.

Jacob thinks we could be Good Samaritans by helping people who are injured. Zander told us that he helped his friend in the playground when he fell over.

James thought we could be a Good Samaritan by giving people money, so we discussed how we can do this (by donating to charity).

Emily thinks we can be a Good Samaritan by helping out at home.

Our target for the next week is to make sure we are a Good Samaritan at least once a day.

Look at those faces! What a great day out it was. Watch out for the 2 for 1 tokens over the next few months for Merlin Attractions and get your parents along for a good laugh/scare.

Thank you to all the parents who came to our Open Morning today! We hope you enjoyed finding out what we have learned this week and enjoyed doing some space activities with us.

Today we learned lots of facts about the sun. We already knew that the sun is a star, and today we learned that stars are big burning balls of gas! We learned that the sun is the biggest thing in our solar system and looks so big because it is much closer to Earth than other stars. We learned that you could fit Earth inside the sun one million times!

We also learned a bit more about the other planets in our solar system. We looked at the order of the planets, their names, size and colour. We enjoyed listening to some solar system songs on YouTube! We then painted the planets for our walk display.

We are looking forward to showing and telling you everything we have learned tomorrow morning at the open morning!
