The year 3 forest school group had lots of fun making an enormous den in the forest school area. They worked together as a team and the den looks amazing! Well done! They also enjoyed a toasted marshmallow – yum!

Although the rain kept us inside, we still had lots of fun at our Jubilee Party! Year 1 had party food, dancing and games. The children also learnt lots about the Queen and her long reign.
This week we have been learning positional language. The children learnt; left, right, forwards, backwards, quarter turn, half turn, three quarter turn and whole turn. They had fun directing their friends around the playground using only this language, and then programming a beebot to travel to a planned destination.
The weather didn’t stop the children from having fun making water runs and umbrellas! They worked together as a team and enjoyed sharing their ideas with their friends.
We met Chester the school dog and Mr Taylor told all about how to look after him. Children then wrote some captions about Chester using the programme J2E. We are getting really good at logging on, naming and saving our work!
1S went to see the chickens – we were so happy to see three eggs! Children learnt about the life cycle of a chicken and wondered ‘what came first, the chicken or the egg?’ We all hope that there will be chicks at some point!
In science we had fun making rockets, we blew into a straw to propel them. Children discussed what they thought may happen and how to make the rocket go further. There were lots of rockets flying everywhere!
The children in year 1 really enjoyed learning about Peter Thorpe and were inspired to create their own versions of rocket pictures. They used paint, felt tips and collage to create their work. Do you like our gallery?
We learnt about the parts of a plant and decided on a good place to plant bulbs. We hope that they grow!
