First thing this morning, we received a letter from one of the children. It simply made us smile and we hope it makes you smile too!

Keep sending your photos please.

Quick hello to everyone

Posted on Thursday 09 April 2020 by Mrs Freeman

We hope you are all still managing to fit in some learning as well as having some fun. Thank you to everyone who has sent photos through to us – we have really enjoyed looking at them and feel very proud of you all.

In this photo, Penelope and her sister have been very resourceful. They have collected random objects from around the house to create this lovely rainbow. We are sure you will be as impressed as we are! Well done, girls!

Keep up with all the hard work and please keep sending the photos.

Remember though, have fun, be kind and stay active!

A penguin writing reports?

Posted on Wednesday 01 April 2020 by Mrs Freeman

Look who turned up to help me write some of your school reports! Smartie gave me some help to make sure I stay safe when I am using my computer. Can you think of three things he might have said?

Also,Smartie would like to know if you are all using your manners. He has delivered some stickers for you so keep a look out on your work!  The stickers are at the bottom of this page and he has left extra on my kitchen table. Who will be the first to get a sticker on their manners work?                Good Manners Behaviour StickersGood Manners Behaviour StickersGood Manners Behaviour StickersGood Manners Behaviour StickersGood Manners Behaviour StickersGood Manners Behaviour StickersGood Manners Behaviour StickersGood Manners Behaviour Stickers

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Busy People

Posted on Tuesday 31 March 2020 by Mrs Freeman

Well, here we are in the second week of home learning. There are so many photos being sent to us and we are simply amazed by the variety of activities happening in everyone’s homes.

Not only is the home learning taking place, we have also seen baking, gardening and cleaning.

We planted some potatoes and garlic which has sprouted. We followed the concept ‘Best from Waste’. Instead of throwing them away we thought we’d plant them.

We are incredibly proud of the children for having a go at some home learning. The feedback we’ve received has been very supportive and just shows how determined the children are to keep up with their education.

Using our class news page is a great way to stay in contact with each other and share the activities we have all been doing. As well as your activities,  we will also keep you posted with some of the things we have doing whilst away from school.

Toys Now and Then

My toy is a cute snowman. He was knitted by my aunty.  He wears a blue hat and scarf and has 3 buttons on his tummy.  On his face is a really big smile and a red nose like a cherry.      Super descriptive writing –  well done!

The Taylor household has also been hard at it. Here are a few photos from Mrs Taylor.

Living and Learning: body image parent and carer guide

Posted on Sunday 08 March 2020 by Mrs Taylor

Our focus in Living and Learning, for the rest of this half term, is body image.

What is body image?

Body image describes our idea of how our body looks and how we think it is perceived by others. This can include our thoughts and feelings about our height, weight, shape, skin colour, and our appearance and attractiveness more broadly.

This parent and carer guide has been designed to give practical ideas to support your child in building their emotional resilience in this area.

Hockey

Posted on Friday 06 March 2020 by Mrs Freeman

Year 2 have been learning some hockey skills in their  PE lessons. Having mastered how to hold the stick correctly,  the children then learnt how to control, dribble and pass the ball.
