Fruit salad

Explorer treasure hunt
What a busy half term Year 1 &2 have had, learning all about explorers such as Christopher Columbus and Neil Armstrong. This afternoon, at the end of the half term, we had a treasure hunt around school looking for things explorers might need to use. We found a map, a compass, a rucksack and some…
In the garden
Year two went out to do some gardening this week. Our topic this half term is all about growing plants and we want to get our planters in the memorial garden ready to sow some seeds soon. We have lots of weeding to do first though! We could see different signs that spring is here too, such as…
Circus skills day
On Thursday we had our circus skills day. We had a lot of fun learning to balance feathers, spin plates and juggle. The children all tried really hard and showed they were learning fast. On Friday wrote a recount of our day in English and everyone said how much they had enjoyed it. We said thank…
Our class robot
Last week we worked together to make our lovely class robot. One group made his head, another his body, another group his legs and one group made his bendy, purple arms. Then we put all the parts together. We have called our robot Stellar. We are very proud of him and think he looks great!
Look what we have grown!
The Eco-Warrior club have planted lots of seeds and vegetables in our flowerbeds in the memorial garden. We have been picking our produce today "sugar snap peas."
We will be eating them during our morning break tomorrow.
Delicious!!!!!
Making our robots
Today we spent the afternoon making robot characters for our stories. We drew our designs first and planned what to use. We used cardboard boxes, plastic bottles, straws, foil and lots of sticky tape! As Sadie said it was a briilliant afternoon and lots of fun!
No-bot
We have been learning the story of No-bot, about a little robot who lost his bottom. This week we are going to write our own stories about robots and make junk models of our characters!
Investigating in science

Romero day

Awesome eclipse!
This morning we went out onto the playground to see the effects of the solar eclipse. The playground was murky, cold and quite spooky! Then Charlie noticed he could see the eclipse perfectly through the tinted roof of the FSU outdoor area shelter. We all went over to look and had a great view. It…

On Wednesday we had our class visit to the Walker Art Gallery in Liverpool. A lady showed us some of the portraits in the gallery and we became portrait detectives, looking for clues to tell us more about the people in the portraits. Nathan was dressed up as the man in one of the portraits! Then…
