Year 1 - Tudor House Sketching

What budding artists we have this year in Year 1! Earlier this week, we compared houses of today with houses that existed around the time of the Great Fire of London. The children observed the details closely to help them sketch their own pictures. They learnt about the different grades of sketching pencils and worked very hard on their wonderful pencil drawings. Take a look...

The Gingerbread Man

Bumblebee Class have had an exciting couple of weeks with a visit from The Gingerbread Man. We caught some video footage of the Gingerbread men running through our EYFS playground so we went outside to try and find them. We created wanted posters to warn the rest of the school.  We have been learning the Gingerbread man text using Talk for Writing and have created story maps to support our understanding. This week we have started writing elements of The Gingerbread Man story using our phonic knowledge. We also have had a lovely time making and decorating Gingerbread men to sell at our Christmas Fair.

Hilltop residential, day 1

Wow! What a first day! The children have been amazing and have represented our school ethos in every possible way- we are very proud of them! They have aspired to achieve, by pushing themselves out of their comfort zone and into their stretch zone, by jumping from great heights onto an airbag and completing an assault course, or climbing and abseiling. They have been kind and collaborative, supporting one another to complete the challenges and to manage organising themselves. They have been open and honest, with themselves and with others, when facing challenges. They have been respectful of themselves in their decision making and respectful of others with their decision making. They have definitely welcomed new experiences and shown their super learning powers. This is what it's all about- all coming together for an amazing time with their friends on this trip- well done from a super-proud staff team! Day 1 photos

Kestrel Class have had another amazing week:  they have performed their play to the school and to their families. The performance was funny and heart-warming. The children did their very best and we all really enjoyed the show, along with seeing their pleasure in performing and how supportive they were of one another. They took everything in their stride...  Well done, Kestrel Class- we are really proud of you- again!
