Year 2 have been busy this week. We have finished our dream towns in our shoe boxes- here are some of the children from the Hobbits showcasing their work!

 

This afternoon, we have been learning compass directions and using these to follow directions around the playground. The children have been using chalk to map out where north, east, south and west are and then marking down their journey across the playground.

Take a look at the wonderful afternoon of play, learning and exploration we had in our beautiful school woods today! 

Our squad of 13 Year 5 & 6 children jumped, threw and ran themselves around the HCC field in the inter-schools Quad Kids Athletics with such determination this afternoon. Their efforts were outstanding!  They pushed themselves to compete to a very high standard whilst encouraging and supporting each other brilliantly. Well done everyone 👍🏻👏🏻😃 Time to wait for the results to come in - have you done enough to reach the finals? 🤔🤞🏻🏃🏻‍♂️🏃🏼‍♀️

Thank you to all the parents and grandparents who joined Year 1 this afternoon to search for magical natural materials to make a magic wand. Be careful when casting your spells we don't want any of you turning into frogs! What a great way to end our project Enchanted Woodland, super work Year 1.

Well done Year 1 you certainly bounced your socks off today and what fun it was. Don't forget to collect your sponsorship money and bring it into school you all earn it. 

Year 2 had a wonderful time today raising money for the library. Thank you for all the sponsorship money sent in! 

Year 5 had a great time bouncing outside this morning! 

We have a few thank yous that we'd like to say...

- Thank you to the PTFA and Mr Brice for all of your help and support with the event.

- Thank you to Jewsons who saved the day by lending us a generator for the bouncy castle.

- And lastly, a HUGE THANK YOU to everyone that sponsored us! 

If you have donations at home, please bring them in asap. :-)

All the children and staff in Reception would like to say a massive thank you! to the PTFA who laid on our Bounce 4 Books event today. We had a great time! We can’t wait to spend our money on some new texts.

Today, the children finished working on Twinkle Twinkle little star on the mini steel pans. They also learnt some more about chords.

This is just a reminder about our parent event, 'bounce' for books event and parent phonics meeting all happening on Monday afternoon (20th of May). Please come to the Year 1 doors at 1:30pm to start our Enchanted Woodland Parent Event, where you will be making magical  woodland wands! At 2:30pm, we will then be leaving the woods and going straight to the 'bounce' for books event. Parents and carers from the Enchanted Woodland event are welcome to come and join us during our 'bounce' for books slot. Please ensure your child has their 'bounce' for books letter returned, otherwise they will not be able to take part. Finally, at 3:30pm, we will be having our Phonics parents meeting in the year 1 classrooms. In this meeting you will be given valuable information about the national Phonics screening check your child will be taking part in during the week beginning the 10th of July. In addition, you will be given information about the Secret Agent Training Day. 

We look forward to seeing you all tomorrow!
