Today, Year 3 were treated to a visit by two lovely ladies from Specsavers in Thorne. They told us all about how our eyes work and why somebody might need glasses. Did you know … our eyes actually see things upside down?
Remember – if you think your eyesight might be a little blurry, whether from a distance or close up, then get yourself down to Specsavers for an eye test!
This week, Crew Knowles have enjoyed reading all about the Gunpowder Plot and learning why we celebrate Bonfire Night. We have practised our reading fluency through paired reading and carefully critiquing each other against our fluency strategies.
Class 7 continued learning about Hindu stories and how the River Ganges was like a mother, as it helped the world grow through care and nourishment, with the help of Shiva. We created posters to show how the earth cares for us!
Today, Class 7 have continued working on their pop art and created some beautiful work that will go towards our final product!
Class 8 have been learning all about pop art and some of the famous pop artists, such as Andy Warhol.
The children then used some of the pop art printing styles and bright colours to create their own medals in this style. They look fabulous and will be great on our product at the key stage 1 presentation of learning.
well done class 8!
Class 7 began their pop art work! They worked hard and concentrated well on being able to cut out shapes accurately, print their dots and created beautiful pop art style patterns in their writing.
Next Friday, to celebrate Children In Need we are holding a BUN SALE to raise money for the Charity. Buns/Cakes will be priced at 50p.
We will also be having a Non-Uniform Day – The theme will be YELLOW, SPOTTY or CHILDREN IN NEED THEMED clothing.
We would really appreciate bun/cake donations for the bun sale – If you are able to support this please send to Mrs Spetch.
Keep an eye out on the blog as I will send further activities linking to Children in Need like a fun family quiz and details on our Children In Need Coffee Morning!
Thank you!
Next Tuesday (11.11.25), Year 2 will be hosting a family learning event linked to creative writing. We hope that you can attend this date, which will begin at 1.30pm. Please come through the main entrance and we can take you to your class.
