8th April 2022Miss K. Wilkinson

We had a busy busy day handing out award certificates today, we had our usual star of the weeks, our golden coin winner, 100% attendance certificates, sponsored reading awards and our Easter Egg winners! It’s so good to be able to celebrate all the amazing things that your children do each and every day. We hope that you all have a fab Easter break and see you in two weeks. 🐣

Year 3 Kickboxing

7th April 2022Miss K. Wilkinson

Year 3 enjoyed their final kickboxing lesson today with Mr Brown.

They have learned lots of new skills over the last six weeks including basic punches, kicks, ducks and even got involved in some pad work! They have all made such good progress in such a short space of time.

Year 3’s Greek food tasting

6th April 2022Miss K. Wilkinson

Year 3 had an exciting afternoon trying lots of different Greek foods. As part of our Dimensions topic- Athens v Sparta, we have been learning about Greece. The children have learnt about the history of Greece, food and culture. We thought it was only right to try some of these foods. So we had an enjoyable afternoon trying the different delicacies! We tried: olives, Greek yoghurt, Vine leaves, baklava, feta cheese, pita bread with tzatziki and hummus.

 

Parts of a Plant

5th April 2022Miss K. Wilkinson

Class 3 enjoyed exploring the parts of a plant as part of our Science lesson. We took them apart, looked carefully at them and then reassembled them before labelling the main parts of the plant.

We have also been looking at length in our maths lesson so compared the lengths of the stem with our partner.

Healthy Eating

4th April 2022Miss K. Wilkinson

Year 4 have been learning all about Healthy Eating this half term. They now know about the different food groups, the correct ratios for the food groups and how to choose healthy options for themselves. This week we have moved onto careers involving food and had a visit from our school cook- Mandy. The children prepared questions such as:
-How do you choose the menu? -How do you ensure we have a healthy diet?
-What qualifications do you need to be a school cook?
-What roles are there in the kitchen?
-Do you enjoy your job?

The children listened to Mandy and received lots of information for their next task- designing a school menu.

Thank you Mandy for visiting us this week. 😊

The BIG Triangle

29th March 2022Miss K. Wilkinson

The sheer joy when you solve a maths puzzle! ❤️

Class 4 had the “best fun” (so they told me) in maths today! The BIG triangle puzzle was such a fun way to practise rapid recall of number bonds for 10 and to develop team work and resilience.
