What a final week we have had in reception class! We have been incredibly busy with our class nativity, we’ve had our Christmas dinner, made salt dough decorations, Christmas cards and Christmas crowns! We’ve also been incredibly lucky as we’ve had some VERY special visitors this week too - we had a visit from Clive Pig who told us some Christmas stories, and we even had a visit from the man himself - SANTA 🎅🏼 we have had so much fun with our friends this week and it has been a wonderful end to a wonderful term! Well done Robins, we’re so very proud of you all. Have a wonderful Christmas 🎄

Year 3/4 have had a great term, all around! Students have worked really hard in lessons, have loved our investigations in Science and Computing, the fieldwork in Geography and History, and our projects in Art and DT. It has really been a packed Autumn Term! In PSHE, Year 3/4 have spent the half term talking about what it means to be a good friend - and specifically talking about Bullying. We have had some really meaningful conversations about how to help others who are being bullied and how to help ourselves if we do not like something that is going on. We continue to be so impressed with the Year 3/4 students and look forward to a wonderful Spring Term!

Year 1/2 have worked so hard this week putting on the world premier of 'The Animals of Stoney Lane' - they did SO well! They sang beautifully, delivered their lines clearly and did so with a smile. We are so proud of all the children, especially when they are so tired after a fun, action packed, autumn term. Thank you to all the families who practised lines, helped with costumes or came to see the show - we appreciate you all!

Year 3/4 have really stepped up their coding skills these past few weeks. We have learned how to use a sprite on Scratch and make it move across the screen with different algorithms of code. This is the foundation for creating digital cartoons and even video games! So impressive!

This week in reception we’ve been celebrating all things winter! ❄️☃️🧣 we’ve been enjoying role playing in our winter themed tuff tray and we’ve been reading our numbers and counting out the right number of objects to add the buttons onto our snowmen. This week the children have been developing their fine motor skills and developing the skill of rolling balls in order to create their own snowmen and using the loose parts to add detail. The children have formed some wonderful relationships with their peers and have been sharing and working together superbly! We’re so impressed with how much progress our children are making within their personal, social and emotional development! #EYFS #learningthroughplay #PSED #understandingtheworld🌍

A lot of hard work and deep thought has gone into this half term's RE topic 'Why do Christians believe that Jesus was the Messiah?' The children have learned a lot of new vocabulary while reading sections of the Bible and investigating the prophecy of Jesus' birth. They also looked into how Christmas is celebrated in both religious and non-religious ways. Look at the range of work they have done - they have really been engaged and super busy!

If you were wondering about the mysterious eggs that appeared at school on Monday - then never fear Year Two are on the case! They’ve decided to ask Sir David Attenborough for advice so they’re writing letters that we will send at the end of the week. We’re sure he’ll be able to help.
