Cricket – Chance to Shine All Stars
Today, the year 1 and 2 children enjoyed some professional cricket coaching delivered by Nick Boyes from Yorkshire Cricket. He was promoting the Chance to Shine program which aims to give KS1 children the chance to experience cricket and hopefully transition into a club environment. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed it!
Egg-cellent Easter fun
Thank you to all the parents and carers who sent decorated hard-boiled eggs and Easter-themed headwear today. We had great fun rolling our eggs and well done to the bonnet parade winners.
Living and Learning – table manners
We have talked about table manners in our Living and Learning lessons this week. The children shared lots of ideas about how to behave at mealtimes.
We have to use a knife and fork.
In my family, we ask before we can leave the table.
We wait for everyone before we start.
We watched a video about Crawford the Cat and table manners too!
Wizard of Oz
The children enjoyed the performance of the Wizard of Oz today. We will be using it to inspire some writing.
Living and Learning : Body Image
We have been learning about body image over the last few weeks in our Living and Learning lessons. We have discussed how we view ourselves and what makes us ‘us’. This also led to conversations about protected characteristics and equality.
Super skippers
Skipping School have visited again today. Jodi ran two sessions this morning for the year 2 children to prepare for an upcoming competition. The whole school are still enjoying skipping and we have some more ropes for sale in the office.
The Year 1 children were also working on their skipping skills, counting how many skips they could do and recording it on the 100 square outside.
Pop-up art gallery – celebrating the end of our arty Big Topic
Thank you to all the parents and carers who came to the pop-up art gallery. The children have been working really hard over the last few weeks and were very excited about seeing their work on display. We asked for donations to our school charity, Cancer Research, in exchange for the children’s art work, raising £41.56. Lots of adults commented on how much they enjoyed the event.
What a lovely idea!
Thank you. It is great being able to come into school and see the children’s work.
Sharing our learning – Topic Review session
Thank you to all our parents and carers who came to the Topic Review session this afternoon. The children love sharing their learning with adults and enjoyed showing what they have learnt in our Topic Review Quiz.
If you were unable to attend this afternoon, why not try the quiz at home?
