Visit from The Word

By Angela Ruffles10th July 2023

We had a visit from Steve Robert from The Word. He brought some Spheros for us to explore. We had a fantastic time learning how to ‘drive’ them and how to make patterns using paint. We even knocked down skittles and hid them under cones – it looked as thought the cones were moving by themselves.

Shiver Me Timbers!

By Angela Ruffles6th March 2020

We have enjoyed Pirate Week all week in celebration of World Book Day.

We have been very busy and have all drawn treasure maps and made observational drawings of pirates. We made necklaces and gold coins, which we used to help us count. We made paper plate pirate ships and our own pirate hats. We even learnt a song about pirates! On Thursday we all dressed up like pirates and enjoyed listening to lots of pirate stories.
