What we have been up to...

December

We have had a jam packed December. First we decorated our school Christmas Tree. We had our Christmas Play which was fantastic and lots of fun. We then had our Christmas Dinner which was delicious and lots of fun all being together listening to Christmas songs. We also had Christmas Karaoke which was a giggle organised by our school council. The Y3s attended our Crib Service with KS1 and FSU. We also decorated a Christmas tree for our church for the Christmas Tree Festival - ours was based around The Snowman.

November

We had our Remembrance Service at our local church and it was really lovely to have some reflection time to think about the soldiers who had died in the wars. We also had our second outdoor learning day where we made our Christmas decoration - a Rudolph made out of wood. We also had an Anti-Bullying Workshop that was great fun and we learnt a lot about respect. We also got the chance to work with a bank and did a money workshop which we really enjoyed too. In science, we have been learning about sound and how sound is made.

October

Another busy month with French Breakfast and Harvest Festival. We also had our first outdoor learning day and lots of fun outside. We had a visit from Catherine who delivered a fantastic, fact filled workshop on Ancient Egypt which we really enjoyed. As part of Black History Month, Tigers Trust delivered a workshop that we really enjoyed.

September

What a busy start to the year we have had! The children have enjoyed their first swimming lesson so far and we are looking forward to the next few weeks watching their swimming techniques develop. We have been busy in English having a Wolf Party as part of our experience day - we had popcorn and sweets and made masks. We also did some spooky dancing. The class enjoyed some pancakes during Fairtrade and made some beautiful chalk artwork. We have also been learning about Light in science and have conducted several experiments including a fun one with UV beads!
