Chloé’s Run for Syria…

2022-08-18T13:27:19+01:00

Chloé heard about the Syrian family coming to our school and wondered about doing something to help the family out. She heard they travel 3200 miles to get here, so she thought about running or cycling 32 miles - quite an achievement!  So... adding to the 24 miles she cycled on the School's bike ride day, Chloé also went out [...]

Handwriting…

2022-08-18T13:27:19+01:00

Class 3 had their first proper handwriting session today. Properly, fully cursive with lead-ins and joins too.  The class liked it so much they asked for sheets to take home!  I just love it when children ask for homework! There's a big variation of pencil grip in our school, and this is something that we'll need to focus in on.  [...]

We had such fun yesterday afternoon learning all about staying safe on the Internet and 'stranger danger'. With a bit of help from Sid, Lee and Kim we all became 'Super Protectors' and made our own badges. We also danced along to SID's song! ​

I'm looking forward to the final concert that our local community of schools' is putting on in December.  Leonard Cohen's 'Hallelujah' sounded lovely and we only practiced it over 25 minutes!

Class one’s first music lesson

2017-09-21T16:05:55+01:00

Class one were very excited for their first music lesson today. We learnt all about rhythm and made up our own rhythmic patterns to copy. We listened to different types of music and some of us were able to talk about why we liked or disliked it. 'I really like the tune, it makes me happy!' - Maya'This song reminds [...]

The Iron Man-English and Science Combined 😀

2017-09-15T22:36:30+01:00

In Science we have been learning about electricity through the Iron Man story. The class had to write their own descriptions of the Iron Man based on the original text. The challenge then was to create the Iron Man's eye, the first part of the Iron Man that was found, by building a circuit to light a bulb. We also [...]

Growing our own beanstalks!

2017-09-15T20:07:16+01:00

Today we have started a science experiment called 'bean in a bag'. We each put a bean into a sealed bag with a piece of damp kitchen roll, we then hung our bags up around the class. Over the next few days, our beans should begin to grow! We have been wondering if there will be a magic bean...maybe we [...]
