Easter fun

As a school we were not able to hold our annual Easter Egg competition this year but that didn't stop some of our children enjoying some creative Easter activities.

Autism Awareness week

Thu 01 Apr 2021

It is Autism Awareness Week 2021! This week, some classes have watched videos from the National Autistic Society and had a discussion about how to ensure our school is autism friendly. The videos suggest 5 different ways to create an inclusive school including giving children longer to answer questions and taking into account different sensory needs. The children then worked as a class to create another rule to add to the list. If you fancy continuing the discussion at home, then check out the links below:

Snow day at home

Tue 02 Feb 2021

Wow, it looks like the children at home have also had a great day playing out in the snow. Children's Mental Health week's theme is 'Express yourself' - well it seems that our children have been doing just that with all their snow creations. I am very impressed by the snowmen that have been built or in some cases, the snow families! Really great to see the children looking so happy, with big smiles on their faces enjoying the great outdoors....a positive thing to do to support children's mental health. Well done everyone!

Snow day at school

Tue 02 Feb 2021

It is Children's Mental Health week this week and so getting out to have fun in the snow is a perfect way to enjoy being outside which is good for everyone's mental health. Also what a great way to make some memories! The children in school enjoyed some fun playing in the snow on the school field today. There were snowball fights...the staff definitely lost against the children! Reception children built a hungry caterpillar out of snow and other year groups built some brilliant snowmen. Some children made snow angels and other just had fun playing their own games in the snow.

Year 1 outdoor learning

Fri 18 Dec 2020

Year 1 have been learning all about seeds. They have been busy collecting lots of tree seeds like conkers and acorns. They have also sown some wildflower seeds ready for a beautiful display next summer.

They have also been looking at all the different ways seeds are dispersed to grow new plants and have enjoyed experimenting with seeds to see how they can travel further.

The children have planted bulbs including onions and garlic bulbs and enjoyed tasting some garlic bread made from the garlic grown at school.

They have learnt about why trees lose their leaves in autumn and enjoyed collecting all the different colours of leaves which they then turned into rainbows.

They also had lots of fun creating sculptures inspired by mythical and real forest creatures from mud!

Year 1 finished up the term by playing lots of outside games and warming up with a hot chocolate!
