• RESPECT, RESILIENCE AND RESPONSIBILITY BARNABAS WORKSHOPS

  Fri 18 Jan 2019
  To support RE learning in the school, the children had a visitor from Barnabas who shared stories with the theme of Resilience, Respect and Responsibility. The children in KS2 partook in workshops where drama activities allowed them to explore scenarios where respect, responsibility or resilience were needed. Stories from the Bible were also used to show where important biblical figures needed to show these qualities when faced with different problems. The children really enjoyed the day and they will bring these qualities into their everyday learning.

• WORLD BOOK WEEK

  Fri 23 Feb 2018

  Share a Story

  As part of World Book Week ten volunteers shared their favourite story with the children. They presented their story during assembly and the children went back to class and decided which one they wanted to listen to. On Monday, each child went to listen to their chosen story and every volunteer made their story special in some way. Michaela (from Time Out) had Elmer shaped cookies for the children to decorate and Mrs Costa had a letter from one of the characters in her story. The children loved being mixed with different year groups and enjoyed listening to a special story. After the session, each volunteer went to hide their book somewhere around school for the children to find...

  Book Hunt

  During our library slot we hunted for the hidden books around school. Once found, the children took the books back to the classroom and read the books to each other in groups. After reading them they filled in book reviews and some children loved doing it so much that they took some of the book reviews home! It was lots of fun finding the different hiding places and sharing the books again once back in class.

• ORCHARD AFTERNOON

  Tue 06 Feb 2018
  Today we spent the afternoon in the orchard. We made a minibeast from clay and anything we could find in the orchard, we built a shelter for the minibeasts and tested to see how waterproof the shelter was. We filtered and purified water for our minibeasts and we searched for food to give them. Then we made a den for ourselves and finished with hot chocolate, popcorn and marshmellows that we cooked on the fire. It was a great afternoon!
