Class 1 visit to Bishop's Wood

On Friday class 1 and class 2 visited Bishop's Wood as part of their 'Houses and Homes' topic. Class 1 have been studying the story of The Three Little Pig's all we so that we were able to get fully involved in the day's activities which included building houses made of straw and sticks and bricks. The houses made of bricks were so strong that the Big Bad Wolf couldn't blow them down.

Shared Reading In Class 1

Last week class 1 were really lucky to have a visit from several children from classes 3 and 4. They had come to share books with the younger children. First the older children chose a book, and then it was the turn of the younger children to choose. Everyone agreed it had been a great success, so we are hoping to make shared reading a regular feature in class 1 in the coming weeks. A big thank you to all the children from Key Stage 2 who took part.

Robot Week in Class 1

As part of their topic of 'Machines and Inventions', class 1 have set up a factory for making robots. They have developed their technology and design skills and have produced some wonderful inventions. A special thanks to the parents who have worked with their children at home to produce some wonderful models and which have then been brought into school. Here are some examples of the structures that the children made in school.

Four children received Headteacher's awards for their collaberative work to produce the robot that they names R2D5. Are these children going to be the engineers of the future?

School Council

In our school we have a school council. The elected members of the school council are: Chloe, Holly, Megan, Harry, Arran, Eleanor, Eleanor, Ellie, Joya and Megan. The age range is between 5 and 11.

A school councillors job is to take ideas from children and take them on board if they like the idea they might use it.

School council help out with loads of fundraisers.

There are 3 key jobs: they are the Secretary, Chair person, Treasurer and Vice Chair Person.

If you are in our school and you have a problem and no one else can help, or a suggestion please don't be afraid to tell one of the members 0f school council, as that is their job!

Bubbles

Class 1 have been having great fun exploring bubbles. We used lots of unusual things as bubble-blowers. The potato masher produced the best bubbles. Now we are going to create a dance based on what we found out about the bubbles.

KS1 Christmas party

We had good fun today. We came dressed in our party clothes. Class2 played a game in their classroom first thing then made some fantastic party hats.

In the afternoon we played games together in the hall. We played pass the oarcel and musical statues. We also played a game where we had to run to different corners of the hall. I wonder if any of the KS 2 children remember playing that game?

We had some yummy food.

We all took home a party bag and a balloon.
