Rights-Respecting Ambassadors Visit to Grange Valley Primary School 6.2.18
Date: 7th Feb 2018 @ 11:18am
Four members of our Rights-Respecting Steering Group led an assembly for the whole school at Grange Valley Primary School, Haydock this morning (6.2.18) to tell the children there all about the UNCRC. As well as introducing the children to some of the articles, they talked about who UNICEF are, what the RIghts-Respecting Schools Award is and what we have done at Lyme to promote everyone's knowledge and understanding of children's rights. After the assembly, they met with the Deputy Headteacher to talk about their work in more detail. She was very impressed and invited the children back next term to talk to the Y4 and Y5 children about starting on their rights-respecting journey.
Well done Emily, Reece, Brodie and Morgan! Not only were you fabulous ambassadors for children's rights but also for Lyme.

We had a fantastic time with the RRS children who came to talk to us about the Rights we have in school. We then had to draw something that we liked from school and some even won a prize!
Well done to Amelia Moorcroft who won the prize for her rights poster! Her Mum uploaded a photo to SPTO to say how pleased she was with her prize!

Rights_Respecting Steering Group lessons - Article 30 - 29.1.17
Date: 1st Feb 2018 @ 4:32pm
During the week beginning 29th January, some members of our Steering Group have taught lessons to Y1-6 about article 30 - every child has the right to learn and use the language, customs and religion of their family.
Nursery and Reception enjoyed an excellent session from two of our Year 6 students, who introduced them to Alice and Alex, our Rights-Respecting mascots. Alex the teddy bear will be making visits home with our Foundation Stage children to take photos linked to some of their rights - nutritious food, clean water, play, education and a clean environment.
The photographs show our teachers in the making!!

If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen!
The children have been preparing, chopping, slicing, dicing and mixing with the help of 'The Junior Chef Academy' this afternoon. They made szechuan noodles as part of the 'A taste of China' lesson. The children were instructed step by step through the recipe by our Chef and given the opportunity to show off their cooking skills!
They had a great time and didnt stop smiling and laughing throughout the lesson. We definitely have a few future Jamie Olivers on our hands in Y5!

THE HIGHWAYMAN
This week we have focussed on the traditional poem 'The HighwayMan'.
We have explored the different themes and discovered what story is being told. Today, we looked at how the main characters felt during the story and how these feelings effected their thoughts and actions.
We used props and costumes to change into the main characters. Once we had 'The HighwayMan' and the other characters in the room, we asked lots of questions about how they were feeling in different situations!

On Wednesday 17th January, Year 4 visited the Museum of Liverpool. This was part of our Learning Challenge for this term is 'Why is the North West so Important?' and during our visit we learnt about how Liverpool became so important. Liverpool was one of the main trading ports in the UK and we found out about imports and exports.
We all had a fun day and here are some pictures.

Year 3 had an absolutely fantastic time when Clud came in to see us for our Stone Age day. They took part in lots of fun activities and games and learnt so many interesting facts. They got to hold a tooth of a woolly mammoth (which was the size of an ipad!) and feel some reindeer fur as well as learning how to make fire. The children all looked fantastic, a big thank you to all the parents for producing some great costumes.
Our new topic for this half term.

Can you solve the mystery of the Maya?
Y6 have been introduced to their new topic today by
taking part in a chocolate challenge.
It is believed that the Mayans were one of the first to discover cocoa as early as 900AD. With this in mind, we challenged the children to identify the mystery chocolates.

This half term, we have worked very hard learning all about World War 2. We decided as a class that we would like to focus on the evacuation of children from city areas in our assembly. Y5 thought that this was the most relatable part of our learning and became one of the most interesting aspects of our WW2 topic.
The assembly was about two young children and their journey from a city to the countryside. It helped the other children understand what these children went through and sacrifices parents had to make. We loved performing, singing and educating everyone on this very important section of our history!

The Year 4 children had an amazing time making Christmas scenes that lit up using a complete circuit.

Year 4 have been looking at the famous artist Claude Monet.
We looked at examples of his work, in particular, the famous Water Lily Pond painting.
We then experimented mixing colours and this week we created our own interpretation of the Water Lily Pond painting.
We followed the style of Monet which involved painting using our fingers. The children had fun and created some amazing art work.
