Today Year 1/2 were visited by some staff at Nissan. They showed them all the different kinds of cars they make at the factory.
The children then had a go at designing their own car before creating some with Lego. The best car design and best Lego creations all received a Nissan lunchbox as a prize!
We definitely have some future car designers in Key Stage 1!
Children visited the Word and took part in a workshop to:
Some of our ARC 1 children posted our letters to Santa this morning. We were lucky enough to bump into an elf postman too! He showed us what the inside of the postbox looks like. We watched as he loaded our letters into the van and they began their journey to the North Pole.
‘TO GIVE, TO HELP, TO BE KIND AND CREATE HAPPINESS’
A new project has been introduced into the school
To Give, To Help, To Be Kind and Create Happiness.
Making Decorations for Various Events in school
The Giving Project volunteers have been enjoying making decorations for various events that have been held in school this term. They have made decorations for the Macmillan Coffee Morning, decorations to celebrate Autumn and beautiful decorations for Christmas. They also enjoyed helping to decorate the beautiful Christmas Tree in the school hall. The children have made a difference to all of these events creating ambiance and atmosphere and should be very proud of themselves.
Supporting Age Concern at Christmastime
The Giving Project volunteers kindly supported Age Concern by making beautiful handmade Christmas cards. A lady from Age Concern came to collect the cards from the children, she thanked them personally for their cards and explained how happy the old people will be when they receive them.. In return, this made the children feel very happy that they could help. School staff are very proud of them.
Year 4 had a visit from a storyteller that helped them create story beads to retell the birth story. They went through the story together adding a bead for every stage.
The stages were as follows:
KS1 have had a lovely afternoon visiting St Nicholas Church and talking to Reverend Paul. Rev. Paul told them all about how they recognise Advent in church and they even sang some Christmas songs. The children listened so well, sang beautifully, and asked lots of insightful questions!
ARC 2 children had a lovely, chilly afternoon at Forest School. They explored the new mud kitchen and worked as a team to build some great dens.
The children from the ARC enjoyed their first joint COJO session this week. Our mission was to carry as many apples as possible from the woods to Granny’s house in five minutes.
This half term Year 1/2’s Dimensions topic has been all about the media and broadcasting.
This week the children in Class 6 created their very own class news broadcast.
They chose their role as either news presenter (which involved presenting each news report to the camera), camera operator (which required a very steady hand!), or story researcher (which involved going around school to find out what is going on in other classes and writing a script).
Every single child in the class was involved in the finished product in some way. We definitely have some future broadcasters and reporters in the making! Well done Class 6!
Arc2 just love their cooking lessons! So far we have followed recipes to make pizzas, cheese scones and a cake! We even help to set the table, wash the dishes and clean up afterwards!
