Class 4 had a fantastic day on our trip to Gibside!
We spent the morning looking for minibeasts! We used a classification sheet to help us identify what we found️

We then spent the afternoon creating art using nature! We created our own artist palette using natural items before using mud as paint to create our own natural paintings️

A fantastic day at Hardwick Park

We spent the morning being pirates and using natural resources to create a pirate ship, followed by cleaning the ocean and then a treasure hunt!

In the afternoon we read a lovely story all about very naughty pirates who didn’t know how to look after our world! We learnt all about how to keep our planet safe and clean from litter!

What a fantastic afternoon for our Year 1 sports day!

We are so proud of the children for the hard work and resilience they demonstrated throughout every single race! It was so lovely to hear them cheering each other on!

And a huge thank you to all the grown ups for coming along to watch and cheer on the children and of course, getting involved in our adults race!!

WELL DONE OUR SPORTS SUPERSTARS!!

Soooo proud of the effort and determination this afternoon, they were absolutely amazing!!!!

Thank you so much to everyone who came to watch and cheer them on! And massive thank you to the grown ups for getting involved with the race at the end, even if some of them cheated

As part of our transport topic, we have been exploring Peter Thorpe’s ‘Space Art’. We explored his different paintings of rockets and discussed the colours he used and why we thought he had chosen them. We then created our own rocket paintings

Thank you so much to everyone who attended our reading afternoon to share a lovely book with your child and spend some quality time together
