Our Lead Learners this week were Oscar and Sophie, they were both kept busy and saw lots of examples of people being compassionate to others, focusing on tasks and being respectful when others are speaking.

We also had a visit from the Countryside Rangers on Wednesday  and we took part in 5 different stations including a  blindfolded maze task, build a den and an obstacle course. They were all great fun and we  demonstrated our school values as we all tried our best, listened to the adults and each other and challenged ourselves.

Things we have been learning this week.

• Linking compass points and angles,
• Developing our rounding skills.
• Learning about journeys and adventures as we read more about The Girl who Rowed the Ocean.
• Developing our sketching skills when we designed our  solo ocean crossing boat.
• We have been looking at Life Journeys and Pilgrimages this week and today we took time to reflect on the loss of  Queen Elizabeth 11, thinking about her life long commitment and service as our Queen. During our time discussing and sharing the various news reports about Queen Elizabeth the children want to investigate further her life journey.

We met Miss Clinkscales today, a 4th year teaching student who will be with us next week and for the next 8 weeks as part of her final placement.
