Year 1: Eli Wilson, you have put 100% effort into PE and are an absolute star-well done! Year 2: Ellarose Brannen, you tried so hard and completed your maths work independently-well done! Peace Akpowowo, your hard work and determination has massively paid off when finding equal groups in maths-well done! Heidi Smith, your maths work this week has been great and you’ve tried so
Year 3 completed their Giacometti inspired sculptures this week. We painted them in metallic colours and evaluated them. We thought hard about what we enjoyed the most about creating the sculptures and also what we found the most difficult.
Today, we explored pollination and what it actually means. We took on the role of the insects, the pollinators and we dipped our fingers in paint (to represent the pollen). We then walked around the room landing on the different flowers (putting our painted fingertips on the flowers) to represent the insects moving from flower to flower. In the end, we could see that as we landed on a flower, we actually picked up bits of pollen (other colours of paint) from other insects (children).
Group 3 had their cookery session with Mrs Stephenson today and they made shortbread biscuits. They were great at mixing the dough and rolling it out carefully.
Year 1: Damon Allen, you have had a wonderful week and have been full of smiles-what a star! Well done! Year 2: Munachi Abasirim, you always take pride in your work and are a great role model-well done! Sharon Salami, you are a credit to our school with your fantastic attitude to learning-well done! Year 3: Millie May Nicholson, you try your best in
We had a great time today colouring, playing and making-thank you for coming to work with us!
We had a great time being mindful with you all yesterday and it was lovely to see so many of you there-we hope you enjoyed it as much as we did!
We designed and coloured our own patterns today, with the lights out, in silence and kept our minds in the present too-it was very relaxing!
As part of Children’s Mental Health Week, we held a ‘Wellbeing workshop’ where we invited our parents and carers along to take part in a variety of craft activities and to play some games with us. We hope it helped to calm and settle everyone’s minds.
Year 3 have continued with their sculptures this week. Today, we have covered the armatures with clay. We worked hard to ensure they were balanced and could stand up. We also used smoothing techniques to smooth over any joins so they don’t crack as they dry. Next week we will be painting them.
