Fruit Tasting

23rd January 2025Chloe Smith

This week, class 4 have been reading the story ‘Handa’s Suprise’ by Eileen Brown. In the story, Handa takes a basket of fruit to her friend, Akeyo. This week we got to try some of the fruits in Handa’s basket! We tried;

banana

mango

pineapple

orange

tangerines

avocado

and even passion fruit!! We then used adjectives to describe what the fruits looked like, smelt like and how they tasted. The children were amazing and tried all the different fruits – although some were definitely more popular than others!!

Dinosaur Poo!!

16th January 2025A Aldcroft

This week after reading ‘The Dinosaur that Pooped the Past’ we were absolutely mortified to discover a dinosaur had been into our garden and pooed in it!!!!!!

We then found MORE poo in our classroom!!!! We’re a bit worried the dinosaurs in our Jurassic World role play are leaving poos everywhere while we aren’t here!

But look at the incredible writing that came from it!

The Mysterious Box

9th January 2025A Aldcroft

This week we came back from the holidays to find a mysterious box in our classroom with danger signs and a warning note attached!

We have no idea how it got there however the children had some amazing ideas of what might be in the box! We know it’s alive as the warning note stated it eats as well as breathes!

A spider with sharp teeth (Jackson)
A giant whale (Kai)
A pretty butterfly (Renae)
A crocodile (Lewi)
A fluffy cat (Leo)
A big, poisonous snake (George)

After lots of discussion and some amazing language used we decided to create a warning poster to warn the rest of the school about the dangerous creature we could potentially have in our classroom!

Year 1 Christmas Nativity

17th December 2024Chloe Smith

On Tuesday, Year 1 performed their Christmas show for their adults. We are so proud of how hard the children worked to learn their lines, as well as the words to all the songs they had to sing – they were absolutely AMAZING! They delivered their lines clearly and sang so beautifully.

Well done Year 1!!

Reduce, Reuse, Recycle♻️

12th December 2024Chloe Smith

This week, we had Laura from the Waste and Recycling Centre come into school to talk to us about the importance of recycling and to help us understand what can and can’t be recycled. We then used recycled materials to create our own Christmas baubles♻️






 

We were so proud of our baubles – we can’t wait to display them on our Christmas trees!!
