Class 5: Day 3

What a lovely day we had today. The children are settling in beautifully! The children competed their morning activity as soon as they came into the classroom. Then in crew time we enjoyed working as a team to pass the hoola hoop around our circle. The children then showed off their phonics skills and myself and Miss Cooper were really proud of the beautiful presentation in ur writing books. After play we learned more about reducing, reusing and Recycling and began to make some posters to share with the other classes in school.

I am so proud of you Class 5 and I am super excited to see you all doing the Colour Run tomorrow!

Class 5: Day 2

Yesterday we had a great time visiting the XP Outdoors Camp. We sang camping song, read a story in the tents and had a play on the KS2 Trim Trail and 3G pitch. We are looking forward to returning next week to do a special activity with Mr Kershaw!

Y1 and Y2 homework menus and parents overview.

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.

Expedition Parent Overview

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

Crew Campfire

We’ve just finished our burgers and hotdogs and now we’re cosy near the campfire enjoying some of Mr Kershaw’s crazy songs!

Y3/4 Expedition field work

On Monday 2nd September, we will be taking year 3 and 4 children on an evacuation trip to our local Methodist Church as part of our new expedition. There is no expectation for children to dress up, however if they wish to they may. We will all be making a gas mask box, an identity label and a luggage label to take too.

The aim of the field work is for the children to experience something similar to what the children in WW2 did during their evacuation. We will leave school at 1pm with a return in time for 3pm pick up. We are hoping this work will engage the children into their new learning.

Here are some ideas for inspiration but please don’t feel you have to buy an outfit – see what you have in the trusty wardrobe!

Y3/ Class 10 – Our First Day!

Wow – what a fabulous first day we have had in our new Year 3 class. The boys and girls have all returned with super attitudes and a readiness to get started straight away … well done everybody!

We have enjoyed using the morning catching up and sharing all of our holiday news as well as recapping our crew norms and character traits. We enjoyed a story called ‘A Letter from Your Teacher on the First Day of School’ and used this to help us pen our own amazing letters to our crew explaining how we we plan to be a good crew mate in Year 3.

This afternoon, we enjoyed spending time with Mr Kershaw in the outdoor campsite where we played games, toasted marshmallows and even sang come campfire songs.

In the words of Chayce … ‘who knew Year 3 could be so much fun!’

Class 5 Graduation

I can’t believe the year is over! Class 5 you have been absolutely amazing. What a wonderful group of children you are. You have worked your socks off this year and I am so proud of each and every one of you. What a gorgeous class you are and Mrs Shaw is very lucky to have you all next year in Year 2. Thank you so much for all the kind words, gifts and cuddles. I am going to miss you all so much but I can’t wait to follow your journey and see what you all achieve in the future. Love from Miss Schön xxxx
