In Class 2 we have joined in lots of different activities to help learn and celebrate the Queens Platinum Jubilee. We have all made crowns and decorated flags in preparation for our whole school picnic tomorrow. We are excited to see you all there!

Class 2 had lots of fun celebrating the end of their Cornerstones Topic, Paws, Claws and Whiskers. They celebrated by decorating and eating dog themed biscuits! Mrs Burton kindly made us shortbread biscuits in the shape of dog paws and bones. We then decorated them with icing and sprinkles. They were delicious! Watch out for your biscuit at home too!

Today we had fun at our OAA event at Framwellgate School Durham. We took part in lots of different activities to help develop our team work and communication skills. We were able to work together to navigate around resources and solve problems.

Massive thanks to our fabulous sports leaders, Marcus, Jenson, Lucas and Amelia.

Today we had a visit from Buddy the dog and a pet snake! Mrs Hindmarch brought in her dog and told us all about how she looks after him and showed us all of the equipment she needs. David also brought in his pet snake and told us about he cares for him. We were surprised at how different the pets and their needs are.

Thank you Mrs Hindmarch and David

Today we have had lots of fun meeting lots of different animals. We were so brave … braver than Mrs Aspinall and Mrs Hindmarch! We all had a go at handling the different animals and talking about how they felt. We also asked John lots of questions about the animals he had brought to school. We have learnt lots of interesting facts about them!

This Easter holiday Simply Sports are running a series of clubs. Please see flyer for more details.

On Friday we had lots of fun joining in a whole school Skipping School day with Gail.

Class 1 had a super fun session and blew Gail’s socks off! She never expected that they would progress from Level 1 – 4 in 1 session. We were able to jump the rope and move forwards and backwards 🙂

In class 2 Gail taught all of us to skip! She was so amazed at our skills that we quickly progressed onto the big rope and every single one of us had a go at jumping in the rope. How amazing!

In Class 3 we had a fantastic time learning how to skip. We learned lots of new skills and had lots of fun.

 

In class 4 we learnt lots of new skills, like the single and double bounce. We had lots of talented skippers as we have skipping ropes every playtime. Gail was impressed with us and we had lots of fun!

In Class 5, we were able to demonstrate our Rights Respecting Gold ethos in learning a variety of new skipping skills including: single bounce; double bounce; figure of eight…

The children absolutely loved their session with Gail and can’t wait to practice their skills during play and dinner times.

A massive thank you to Reverend Michael who came into school today to deliver an assembly all about growth and feeling good. We looked at beautiful flowers and how as humans we are just like them!

 

Well done to this weeks multi skill stars!
