What a great day class 8 had designing their own crowns, making shields, having photos taken in front of our own castle and then finishing the afternoon with medieval dancing and banquet.

Year 2 have really enjoyed their first PE lesson, which focussed on key skills around throwing, catching and balancing! If you could all practise throwing and catching balls at home with your children, it will really help them this year!
Also, thanks so much for the children bringing their kits today…they looked so smart!

Class 8 have been immersing themselves into our new expedition about castles and we have been busy decorating the classroom and getting excited about our learning this term.
Mrs Shaw
Year 2 PE will be on a Wednesday.
Please remember to send your children with the correct PE gear, which is a green/white polo shirt, shorts/leggings and a jumper or jacket if required because of the colder weather, as well as trainers. Please remember not to send children with football/other sports kits! 🙂
We always recommend bringing a bag with your PE kit and having everything labelled with your child’s name.
This Friday (6.9.24), it is our dress up day to hook the children into their Expedition. They are welcome to come as anything medieval! They could be kings, queens, dragons or jesters – whatever links to castles, but please don’t worry about buying a costume!
On Tuesday 15th October it is the Family learning for Year 1. This will begin at 1.30 in the afternoon.
For Year 2, your family learning is on Thursday 17th October. This will again be at 1.30 in the afternoon.
We look forward to seeing you all and the amazing costumes!
Class 8 have had a lovely day sketching dragon eyes then watercolour painting to finish, then all the children made dragon eyes from clay. Well done everyone!
We worked in teams this morning to pass the hoop around our team circles without breaking hands. They all worked very well together! Well done superstars!
See you tomorrow for our exciting colour run!!!
Class 8 made some beautiful cards and drinks coasters this morning. They had positive message and bright, colourful pictures of them, which looked fantastic!
In the afternoon, we walked around to Parklands care home in Thorne and hand delivered them to the residents there.
The children also bravely sang their crew songs, which ended with a large round of applause.
You are making me very proud already class 8, well done!

Apologies to those parents who could not access these menus. We are looking into the issue. In the meantime below is a link to the Parent Overview and a screenshot of each year group’s Homework Menu.
Children should be able to access these menus at any time from the KS1 Extended Study section in the ‘Children’ drop down menu on the front page of the blog if they are logged on with their own Green Top email address.
Please let me know if you have any more problems

Today, the children also took part in XP outdoors activities, which we all loved! We crafted some dream catchers using branches and string, read stories in the camping tents and even toasted marshmallows or biscuits! We even finished with singing a camp song around the fire! Today was a brilliant day and we have had none stop fun…see you all tomorrow! Mrs Shaw
