This week was the first of our spring Forest School sessions. Mr Brooks pointed out the different signs of spring and encouraged the children to look for some too.
The nursery children then went on to make a wooden gingerbread man and the reception children went on a scavenger hunt. They had to remember and collect the same objects which Mr Brooks had shown to them earlier.

We have had lots of fun over the last two weeks with our story The Gingerbread Man. We have made and decorated gingerbread out of dough, hunted for the gingerbread man around the school, made our own gingerbread men, threaded the gingerbread man and looked at what happened when the gingerbread man got wet.

Year 2 designed and made their own healthy wraps in Design Technology.
They used the bridge hold and claw grip to hold the knife safely when cutting fruit and vegetables.
The children really enjoyed preparing a healthy snack and said that they tasted delicious!

Y3's Class assembly: The Romans
Date: 23rd Feb 2023 @ 10:40am
Our Y3 children shared their history learning with their families today by performing a play all about The Romans. They tried so hard with learning and delivering their lines; developing thier drama skills and performing several songs - including one with sign language.
They have thoroughly enjoyed this topic - especially the unusual parts, for example using vomit rooms and shared baths! All the children can now answer the key learning question: 'What did the Romans do for us?'

As part of their current PSHRE topic Year 2 wanted to raise money for a charity. After a class ballot the results showed that the children wanted to raise money for a national charity that helps animals.

Well done Year 2!

Today, Year 4 got on a coach and travelled to Liverpool.
During our morning session, the children were taught all about how the River Mersey was used by people and how it enabled Liverpool to grow into such a massive city. We discussed how goods were transported by sailing ships and eventually huge cargo ships, and also discussed what types of cargo used to come in and out of the city using the river. We found that all sorts of goods were brought into the city from exotic animals like parrots and monkeys to china plates, tea and wool.
After a quick 30 minutes for lunch, we marched across Liverpool to the World Museum. Here, we looked into one of our upcoming topics... The Egyptians. Our guide talked about how Egyptians mummified each other after they'd died. We even performed a mummification ceremony! (It wasn't for the faint-hearted!) As we were doing this, our guide explained about the importance of different Egyptian gods and Egyptian hierarchy within the process.
As a staff, we were all extremely proud of the behaviour of year 4 and the manner in which they conducted themselves around the museums and through Liverpool itself. The children had an excellent time and seemed to enjoy the gory details of mummification in particularly!

During Children's Mental Health week, we took part in lots of different activities to promote positive mental health. We enjoyed an outdoor scavenger hunt which encouraged the children to look for things which made them feel happy/relaxed in the natural environment; we talked about the benefits of being outside on our mental health. During Reward Time, we made 'breathing wands' which can be used to support us when we have uncomfortable feelings, decorated biscuits and did 'scribble art' - all activities to support positive mental health.
