Year 3 Crews began their XP Outdoors again for the spring term.Â
The challenge:Â Who still remembers how to use flint and steel was done by Year 4 yesterday so obviously Year 3 had to beat them.
They challenged themselves even more without having any instructions, there were some questionable strikes to start, but soon everyone got the hang of it with amazing efforts from all.
What another great way to start the term-bring it on, Year 3!
Young Voices is quickly approaching. Your child will be coming home this week with a letter that needs completing and returning to school as soon as possible please!
T-shirts have arrived and will be handed out to children on the day of the concert. Young Voices have informed me that adult tickets will be sent to school a week before the event. These will be printed and sent home as soon as they arrive.
A reminder that Young Voices is taking place on Tuesday 28th January – Children will be leaving school on the coach at 12pm once they have eaten their lunch and will return at approx 9:30pm. Children will also need a packed lunch for their tea.
** UPDATE – 2 Adult tickets have become available for the evening of the event – if you would like to purchase one of these tickets please see me ASAP **
Thank you so much!

I still have some time slots available for those parents who haven’t yet booked a place for their child’s SLC appointment. The children have been spending time this week looking back through all of the different pieces of work that they are proud of.
If you still need an appointment, please email me or see me on the school door at either the beginning or end of the day. Thank you.
We have been busy this afternoon hooking the children into their new expedition. The guiding question is ‘How can I be the healthiest version of me?’. We will be looking at the different food groups and learning some new skills in our food design and technology lessons, such as cutting, grating and peeling.
Today they chose their own fruit or vegetable and their own medium for us to use on our display. I was really impressed with the effort today! Can’t wait for tomorrow!
Here are the rest of my free appointments for any parents who still need to book an SLC appointment with me. Your children have all been practising and are ready to share their time at school with you.
Please speak to Mrs Shaw to book your appointment. Thanks
Today, the Year 4 Crews braced the cold and started XP Outdoors again for the spring term.
A fun challenge: Who still remembers how to use flint and steel?
After a quick demo, it was time to put those skills to the test. At first, there were some hesitant strikes, but soon sparks were flying! Everyone got the hang of it, and by the end, every single crew member nailed it. What a great way to start the term-bring it on, Year 4!
Despite the weather this morning it was a pleasure to welcome back my little rays of sunshine to class 6! We have been busy with new phonics and reading groups, a shape maths quiz and counting and understanding numbers to 20, immersing ourselves in our new expedition and having a first try at what will be our product this term – Shrinky Dinks key rings. The children were full of wonderful stories of the lovely time spent with their families over the Christmas break but all of them settled back into our routines beautifully. I’m so proud of you all and I can’t wait to see you soar over the Spring term!
Welcome back Superstars!
This isn’t my normal first day back post as it links to maths, not the fun we had this afternoon but I really wanted to share this. Maths in fact was quite a hard lesson, which included exchanging a ten when subtracting but I was very proud of them all today and wanted to share it!
It was great to see everyone back at school today and hear all about your holidays.
We also had a new boy in our class today and the children reminded me of their kindness and compassion towards others with how they made him feel welcome and looked after him.
Can’t wait for tomorrow for more fun (and more hard maths 🙂 )
We have been getting involved with our new expedition and immersing our classroom. We will be spending some time looking at the human skeleton this term so we decided to create a ‘X-ray’ of our hands!
It is fair to say that Class 7 enjoyed planting runner beans today, as we began the hook week for our new Expedition. The class put compost in their pots, made a hole to plant the seeds and then covered them ready to (hopefully) grow!
