What a fabulous day we all had at Staunton today. The children were able to extend their learning about animal habitats and go on a bug hunt in the woods. They had a great time holding the large African snail and touching the millipede.

The children also enjoyed walking around the farm and exploring the animals.

Many thanks to all the parents that helped out today. Our trips could not take place without you so thank you!

Have a wonderful weekend.

The children this week have been learning about the properties of 3D shapes.

They have enjoyed making their own shapes from nets and describing how they know what 3D shape it is.

The children in English have been writing their own story based on Tin Forest. We are excited to get them published and displayed in our classrooms.

Year 2 have their liturgy on Tuesday 3rd July at 10.20am in the hall. It would be lovely to see as many families come and join us for our last liturgy of the year.

Have a wonderful weekend.

Many thanks to everyone that was able to come and support the children in their music concert. They had a wonderful time performing all the songs they had learnt this term.

Here are a few photos of the performance.

Hope you enjoy the rest of your week.

The children have been learning the song ‘Summer Holiday’ by Cliff Richard for them to sing at the school summer fayre at the end of June. Please could you encourage your children to learn the song for home learning.

Hope you all had a wonderful half term break. The children have settled back into school well and have been working hard in all areas.

In Maths the children have been practising their times tables. Please encourage the children to go on Sum Dog and take part in the challenge for the national competition.

In English the children have started reading the Tin Forest and looking at the language choices within the story.

In Science the children have been looking at things that are alive, things that have never been alive and things that are dead. The children have enjoyed discussing reasons for their choices when grouping.

The children have had a great STEM day where they have been learning about the habitats of animals as well as looking at the technology within the ambulances.

Please remember 2A have their music concert on Monday 11th June 2018 at 11.15am in the classroom. Hope to see as many of you there as possible.

Hope you all have a lovely weekend.
